Alternate Compactifications of Hurwitz Spaces
We construct several modular compactifications of the Hurwitz space \(H^d_{g/h}\) of genus g curves expressed as d-sheeted, simply branched covers of genus h curves. They are obtained by allowing the branch points of the cover to collide to a variable extent, generalizing the spaces of twisted admis...
