STNB 2016 (30th edition)
On loci of smooth plane curves with non-trivial automorphism groups
Presenters
Abstract
The talk is devoted to some generalization of the genus 3 curves STNB2005, for higher genus which admits a plane non-singular model.
Let $M_g$ be the moduli space of smooth, genus $g$ curves over an
algebraically closed field $K$ of zero characteristic. Consider the locus $M_g^{Pl}$ where
$$
M_g^{Pl}:=\{\delta\in M_g|\,\,\exists\, a\,\,smooth\,\, plane\,\, model\, for\,\, \delta \}.$$
Now, if $G$ is a finite non-trivial group then define the loci $M_g^{Pl}(G)$ and $\widetilde{M_g^{Pl}(G)}$ as
\begin{eqnarray*}
M_g^{Pl}(G)&:=&\{\delta\in M_g^{Pl}|\,G\cong\, a\, subgroup\, of\, Aut(\delta)\},\\
\widetilde{M_g^{Pl}(G)}&:=&\{\delta\in M_g^{Pl}|\,G\cong Aut(\delta)\}.
\end{eqnarray*}
In particular, we have $\widetilde{M_g^{Pl}(G)}\subseteq M_g^{Pl}(G)\subseteq M_g^{Pl}\subseteq M_g$.
\par This talk is devoted to present the results, which have been obtained on these loci. For instance, some aspects on the irreducibility of $\widetilde{M_g^{Pl}(G)}$ and its interrelation with the existence of "normal forms", the analogy of Henn's results on quartic curves, but for degree $5$ curves (jointly with Francesc Bars), and also an account on the set of twists of such loci (jointly with Francesc Bars and Elisa Lorenzo).
