The moduli stack of enriched structures and a logarithmic compactification
Abstract
Enriched curves have been studied over algebraically closed fields by Main\`o ([Mai98]) and recently over general base schemes in [BH19]. In this paper, we study enriched curves from a logarithmic viewpoint: we give a succinct definition of the stack of rich log curves, which is an open substack of the stack of log curves, and define an enriched curve to be a curve with a minimal rich log structure on it. This logarithmic view point turns out to be a natural language for enriched structures, leading naturally to a simple modular compactification. This modular compactification is a smooth log blowup of the stack of log curves, answering affirmatively two questions from [BH19]. We also generalise the concept of rich curves to $r$-rich curves, and show similar results. We include a chapter phrasing some of the key definitions solely in the language of real tropical geometry.
