This result can be used to construct the coarse moduli space of Deligne-Mumford stable pointed curves \bar M_g,n and Hassett's moduli spaces of weighted pointed curves \bar M_g,A (though the full construction of the moduli spaces is not contained in this paper, only the stability proof). My proof follows Gieseker's approach to reduce to the GIT problem to a combinatorial problem, though the solution is very different. The action of any 1-PS lambda on a curve C in P^N gives rise to weighted filtrations of H^0 (C, O(1)) and H^0 (C, O(m)), and I give a recipe in terms of the combinatorics of the base loci of the stages of these filtrations for showing that C is stable with respect to lambda.41 pagesAlgebraic Geometry14L24; 14H10text
