Abstract

We prove the existence of moduli spaces for algebraic stacks with a weak action of $Θ= [\mathbb{A}^1/\mathbb{G}_m]$ (including stacks of filtered objects and unstable $Θ$-strata) for which the center admits a good moduli space and the retraction to the center has flat, finitely presented relative inertia, providing a stack-intrinsic generalization of the existence of non-reductive Geometric Invariant Theory quotients. As an application, we construct quasi-projective coarse moduli spaces of principal bundles over a smooth projective curve with non-reductive structure groups, including moduli spaces of Ramanathan unstable principal bundles of fixed Harder--Narasimhan type.

Wall divisors on irreducible symplectic orbifolds of Nikulin-type

We determine the wall divisors on irreducible symplectic orbifolds which are deformation equivalent to a special type of examples, called Nikulin orbifolds. The Nikulin orbifolds are obtained as partial resolutions in codimension 2 of a quotient by a symplectic involution of a Hilbert scheme of 2 points on a K3 surface. This builds on the previous article arXiv:2009.04873 in which the theory of wall divisors was generalized to orbifold singularities.

Prekosmic Grothendieck/Galois Categories

We establish a generalized version of the duality between groups and the categories of their representations on sets. Given an abstract symmetric monoidal category $K$ called Galois prekosmos, we define pre-Galois objects in $K$ and study the categories of their representations internal to $K$. The motivating example of $K$ is the cartesian monoidal category $\textit{Set}$ of sets, and pre-Galois objects in $\textit{Set}$ are groups. We present an axiomatic definition of pre-Galois $K$-categories, which is a complete abstract characterization of the categories of representations of pre-Galois objects in $K$. The category of covering spaces over a well-connected topological space is a prototype of a pre-Galois $\textit{Set}$-category. We establish a perfect correspondence between pre-Galois objects in $K$ and pre-Galois $K$-categories pointed with pre-fiber functors. We also establish a generalized version of the duality between flat affine group schemes and the categories of their linear representations. Given an abstract symmetric monoidal category $K$ called Grothendieck prekosmos, we define what are pre-Grothendieck objects in $K$ and study the categories of their representations internal to $K$. The motivating example of $K$ is the symmetric monoidal category $\textit{Vec}_k$ of vector spaces over a field $k$, and pre-Grothendieck objects in $\textit{Vec}_k$ are affine group $k$-schemes. We present an axiomatic definition of pre-Grothendieck $K$-categories, which is a complete abstract characterization of the categories of representations of pre-Grothendieck objects in $K$. The indization of a neutral Tannakian category over a field $k$ is a prototype of a pre-Grothendieck $\textit{Vec}_k$-category. We establish a perfect correspondence between pre-Grothendieck objects in $K$ and pre-Grothendieck $K$-categories pointed with pre-fiber functors.
