The moduli space of hypersurfaces whose singular locus has high dimension

Thesis (Ph. D.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Mathematics, 2011. / Cataloged from PDF version of thesis. / Includes bibliographical references (p. 75). / Fix integers n and b with n =/> 3 and 1 =/< b < n - 1. Let k be an algebraically closed field. Consider the moduli space X of hypersurfaces in P" of fixed degree I whose singular locus is at least b-dimensional. We prove that for large 1, X has a unique irreducible component of maximal dimension, consisting of the hypersurfaces singular along a linear b-dimensional subspace of P". / by Kaloyan Slavov. / Ph.D.
