Title
Topological results on Moduli of Curves
First I shall introduce the moduli space of curves over complex numbers.This has been a central object of study in Algebraic Geometry with connections in mathematical physics, number theory and complex dynamics. This is also the primary object of study in my research. I shall then talk about a stratification of the moduli space by affine varieties and mention some partial results in this direction. Changing topics I shall then talk about more recent work on some moduli spaces of elliptic curves with applications to number theory.
