Degenerations of twisted maps to algebraic stacks

Abstract:

Assume that one has a family of nodal curves over the punctured disc C^*\to \Delta^*, with a morphism C^*\to \calM  to an algebraic stack \calM with a projective good moduli space. I will explain how one can, up to replacing the punctured disc with a ramified cover of it, compactify this family to a family of nodal (twisted) curves over the whole disc C\to \Delta, in a way such that the generic morphism C^*\to \calM extends to C.

 

For example, in the case where \calM = BPGL_n, this gives a recipe to extend fibrations in Brauer-Severi varieties, whereas for \calM = [A^1/Gm] this gives a way to extend families of line bundles with a section. The talk is based on a joint work with Andrea Di Lorenzo.
