Review text

This is the fourth lecture of these proceedings. Here the author sketches the construction of the coarse moduli space \({\mathcal M}_g\) of stable curves of genus \(g\) (\(g\geq 2\)) over \(\mathbb Z\) and studies some of its general properties. The semi-stable and stable curves are introduced in such a way that the family of stable curves is embedded by the tricanonical linear system. Then the coarse moduli space is obtained following Mumford's geometric invariant theory, by passing to the quotient via the natural action of the projective linear group. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0978.14002].
