Abstract

We construct the moduli spaces of stable maps, Graphic, via geometric invariant theory (GIT). This construction is only valid over Graphic, but a special case is a GIT presentation of the moduli space of stable curves of genus g with n marked points, Graphic; this is valid over Graphic. In another paper by the first author, a small part of the argument is replaced, making the result valid in far greater generality. Our method follows the one used in the case n = 0 by Gieseker in [9], 1982, Lectures on Moduli of Curves to construct Graphic, though our proof that the semistable set is nonempty is entirely different.
