Title: Moduli spaces of metric graphs
Abstract: There is a moduli space of (finite, not necessarily connected) metric graphs, equipped with a homotopy commutative product, a homotopy associative coproduct, and a compatible filtration. In recent joint work with Brown, Chan, and Payne, we explained how this moduli space provides a space-level lift of a certain rational chain complexes arising in descriptions of derived automorphism groups of operads. I will sketch a proposed Koszul dual to this moduli space.
