Abstract Moduli spaces of quadratic differentials on Riemann surfaces appear in quite different contexts such as the dynamics of polygonal billiards and spaces of stability conditions. This talk provides an introduction to the geometry of these moduli spaces and compares the state of the art with the knowledge on the classical moduli space of curves.About the Speaker Martin MöllerGoethe-Univers...
AbstractWe give correspondences between: 1. deformation of 3-Calabi-Yau categories; 2. partialcompactification with orbifolding of moduli spaces and 3. taking sub-guotient of mapping classgroups
