Algebraic Geometry Seminar: "Compactifications of the moduli space of elliptic surfaces"
Kenneth Ascher, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)
Abstract: I will describe a class of modular compactifications of moduli spaces of elliptic surfaces. Time permitting, I will also discuss recent work towards connecting these compactifications with various existing compactifications of the moduli space of rational elliptic surfaces. This is joint work with Dori Bejleri.
