Title

Stable log maps

Abstract

The theory of stable log maps was developed recently by Abramovich-Chen-Gross-Siebert to generalize the theory of relative stable maps. To illustrate the idea of using log geometry, I will focus on the basic situation when the target is given by a variety with a Cartier divisor. Stable log maps relative to more complicated boundary, for example simple normal crossings or even toric, can be constructed in a similar manner. This is based on a joint work with Dan Abramovich.
