Quotients by GroupoidsWe show that if a flat group scheme acts properly, with finite stabilizers, on an algebraic space, then a quotient exists as a separated algebraic space. More generally we show any flat groupid for…Sean Keel, Shigefumi Mori·Aug 25, 1995SaveLearn
On the quantum cohomology of the plane, old and newWe describe a method for counting maps of curves of given genus (and variable moduli) to P2, essentially by splitting the P2 in two; then specialising to the case of genus 0 we show…Ziv Ran·Aug 23, 1995SaveLearn
Actions of groups of birationally extendible automorphismsWe study the actions of a Lie group G by birationally extendible automorphisms on a domain D⊂ Cn. For a large class of such domains defined by polynomial inequalities, all automorphisms…Alan Huckleberry, Dmitri Zaitsev·Aug 22, 1995SaveLearn
