I am currently interested in wall-crossings in the moduli of weighted stable marked moduli spaces of cubic surfaces and their KSBA compactifications. The work of studying cubic surfaces is a very deep and rich field in algebraic geometry dating back to the work of Cayley and Salmon in the 1800s. Since then there has been a lot of work studying its moduli space and compactifications.
"Algebraic geometry starts with cubic polynomial equations. Everything of smaller degree, like linear maps or quadratic forms, belongs to the realm of linear algebra."
