Riassunto

Moduli theory represents a significant topic of modern mathematical research with strong connections to many areas of mathematics (including geometry, topology and number theory) and other disciplines such as theoretical physics. This book presents articles on both fundamental material and advanced research topics, accessible at the graduate level and above.
