Synopsis

The first third of the monograph focuses on the construction and description of toroidal compactifications of moduli spaces, which specializes to the Igusa compactification in the principally polarized case. In the next section, the emphasis is on the construction of degenerate Abelian surfaces, using Mumford's general theory. The last part discuss
