 Advanced Studies in Pure Mathematics 2010; 479 pp; hardcover Volume: 58 ISBN-10: 4-931469-59-0 ISBN-13: 978-4-931469-59-4 List Price: US$84 Member Price: US$67.20 Order Code: ASPM/58 The conference on Algebraic and Arithmetic Structures of Moduli Spaces was held at Hokkaido University in Sapporo, Japan in September 2007. Twenty talks were delivered by invited speakers on arithmetic geometry, algebraic geometry and complex geometry. This volume is the proceedings of the conference--a collection of eleven papers contributed by some of the speakers. The papers have undergone rigorous refereeing. The articles cover a diverse range of topics such as class field theory, zeta functions, moduli of arithmetic vector bundles, moduli of complex vector bundles, moduli of abelian varieties and theory of display, moduli of Fermat varieties and some topics on cubic threefolds. Among others, the papers by Pappas and Rapoport, Rajan, and Weng address many new interesting questions in the related fields and will be worthy reading for young researchers. Volumes in this series are freely available electronically 5 years post-publication. Published for the Mathematical Society of Japan by Kinokuniya, Tokyo, and distributed worldwide, except in Japan, by the AMS.
