Moreover\, it is also known that the Torelli map does not extend over the alternative compactifications of the moduli of c urves as described by the Hassett—Keel program\, including the moduli of p seudostable curves (can have nodes and cusps but not elliptic tails).\n\nB ut it is not yet known whether the Torelli map extends over the Smyth's al ternative compactifications of the moduli of curves\; what about the modul i of curves of genus g with rational m-fold singularities\, where m is a p ositive integer bounded above? As a joint work in progress with Jesse Kass and Matthew Satriano\, I will describe two types of moduli of curves with m-fold singularities and describe how far the Torelli map\n\nextends over such spaces into the Alexeev compactifications.\n\nIn person UQAM PK-5675 \n\nZoom meeting 86352363947\n DTSTART:20231129T183000Z DTEND:20231129T193000Z SUMMARY:Changho Han (University of Waterloo) URL:/mathstat/channels/event/changho-han-university-wa terloo-353040 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
