Stable degenerations of symmetric squares of curves
Michael A. van Opstall
The main result of this article is that the component of the Alexeev-Kollár-Shepherd-Barron moduli space of stable surfaces parameterizing stable degenerations of symmetric squares…

Stable degenerations of surfaces isogenous to a product of curves
Michael van Opstall
We use the moduli space of stable curves to determine the stable (in the sense of Kollár-Shepherd-Barron) degenerations of surfaces isogenous to a product of stable curves. A recen…

Moduli of products of curves
Michael van Opstall
This paper studies the moduli space of stable surfaces of general type. The moduli space component containing the moduli point of a product of smooth curves of general type is prov…
