Complete symplectic quadrics and Kontsevich spaces of conics in Lagrangian Grassmannians
Elsa Corniani, Alex Massarenti
A wonderful compactification of an orbit under the action of a semi-simple and simply connected group is a smooth projective variety containing the orbit as a dense open subset, an…
