These notes are based on some lectures given at TIFR during January and February 1980. The object of the lectures was to construct a projectire moduli space for stable curves of genus g >= 2 using Mumford's geometric' invariant theory.

This book provides a guide to a rich and fascinating subject: algebraic curves and how they vary in families. The aim has been to provide a broad but compact overview of the field, which will be accessible to readers with a modest background in algebraic geometry. Many techniques including Hilbert s
Provides a broad but compact overview of algebraic curves and how they vary in families, focusing on examples and applications arising from the study of moduli of curves. Paper. DLC: Moduli theory.
The field of moduli K of a curve X a priori defined over the separable closure K s of K need not be a field of definition. This paper shows that the obstruction is essentially the same as the obstruction to K being a field of definition of the cover X ~ X/Aut(X). Using previous results of Dbbes-Doua
The study of special cases of elliptic curves goes back to Diophantos and Fermat, and today it is still one of the liveliest centers of research in number theory. This book, addressed to beginning graduate students, introduces basic theory from a contemporary viewpoint but with an eye to the histori
