Moduli spaces of curves with quasi-symmetric Weierstrass gap sequences (Q1366281)

In this paper, which is a continuation of the authors' previous paper on canonical curves with quasi-symmetric Weierstrass semigroups [\textit{G. Oliveira} and \textit{K.-O. Stöhr}, Geom. Dedicata 67, No. 1, 45-63 (1997; see the preceding review)], there are studied the moduli spaces of the complete pointed algebraic curves with specific quasi-symmetric semigroups. With some exceptions the authors show, using Gröbner basis techniques, that these canonical curves are the intersection of quadratic hypersurfaces and more generally that their ideal is generated by quadratic relations. They construct the moduli space of the pointed complete Gorenstein curves with a given quasi-symmetric gap sequence and obtain the equations of the moduli space in terms of Buchberger's criterion.
