Moduli spaces / edited by Leticia Brambila-Paz (Centro de Investigación en Matemáticas A.C. (CIMAT), Mexico), Oscar García-Prada (Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Cientificas, Madrid), Peter Newstead (University of Liverpool), Richard P. Thomas (Imperial College London).

Moduli theory is the study of how objects, typically in algebraic geometry but sometimes in other areas of mathematics, vary in families and is fundamental to an understanding of the objects themselves. First formalised in the 1960s, it represents a significant topic of modern mathematical research...
