5. Boundary of M_d

    1. Problem 5.1.

      [Rachel Pries] Give an algebraic description of the boundary and maps in the boundary in characteristic p not necessarily 0. (Reference DeMarco). Try d=3. Motivation: results for moduli curves use understanding of the boundary.
        • Problem 5.2.

          [Holly Krieger]
          1. (Want to look at a curve in M_2). For f(z)=\frac{z^2-1}{z^2-c}, there is a collection of PCF maps which approach c=1 on the curve. Compare the arboreal representation for f to the representation of the limit map.
          2. More generally, how do these representations behave as you deform to the boundary?
