About this Item

The arithmetic and geometry of moduli spaces and their fundamental groups are a very active research area. This book examines the geometry of moduli spaces of curves with a function on them. It covers the absolute Galois group $G_{\mathbb Q}$ of the algebraic numbers and its close relatives. Editor(s): Fried, Michael D.; Ihara, Yasutaka.

Synopsis

The 19 papers consider such topics as descent theory for algebraic covers, limits of Galois representations in fundamental groups along the maximal degeneration of marked curves, explicit formulae for l -adic polylogarithms, fundamental groups and geometry of curves in positive characteristic, configuration spaces for wildly ramified covers, prescribing ramification, de-singularization and modular Galois theory, Genus 0 actions of groups of Lie rank 1, semi-simple triangular Hopf algebras and Tannakian categories, and the Hodge-Arakelov theory of elliptic curves. They are not indexed. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
