The Fulton-MacPherson conguration space is a natural compactication of
the conguration space
of n ordered points on a smooth projective variety .
The Kontsevich moduli space parametrizing stable maps from n-pointed
rational curves
to a projective space is another widely studied algebraic variety, and
plays a central role in algebraic
geometry, string theory and Gromov-Witten theory.
These two spaces are indeed closely related. In this seminar we will
discuss properties of fibrations
of these spaces, and compute their automorphism groups.
