Weak positivity and the stability of certain Hilbert points (Q909728): Difference between revisions

The author's aim in this paper is to use the notion of weak positivity and other methods from classification theory to construct quasi- projective coarse moduli schemes. In fact he obtains only a partial result, namely that smooth points of the reduced Hilbert schemes of canonically polarised manifolds are stable in the sense of geometric invariant theory; in particular, if such a reduced Hilbert scheme is actually non-singular, then the corresponding coarse moduli space exists and is quasi-projective. The techniques are also applied to fibre spaces, leading in particular to a simplified proof of the generalised Iitaka conjecture \(C^+_{n,m}\).
