Hauteurs canoniques sur l'espace de modules des fibrés stables sur une courbe algébrique
We show that the Hilbert scheme of curves and Le Potier’s moduli space of stable pairs with one dimensional support have a common GIT construction. The two spaces correspond to chambers on either side of a wall in the space of GIT linearisations. We explain why this is not enough to prove the “DT/PT wall crossing conjecture” relating the invariants derived from these moduli spaces when the underlying variety is a 3-fold. We then give a gentle introduction to a small part of Joyce’s theory for such...
