Birational Geometry and Moduli Spaces

This volume collects contributions from speakers at the INdAM Workshop “Birational Geometry and Moduli Spacesâ€, which was held in Rome on 11–15 June 2018. The workshop was devoted to the interplay between birational geometry and moduli spaces and the contributions of the volume reflect the same idea, focusing on both these areas and their interaction. In particular, the book includes both surveys and original papers on irreducible holomorphic symplectic manifolds, Severi varieties, degenera
