Abstract

After a brief introduction to moduli problems and moduli stacks, I will explain how to calculate cohomology ring of the moduli stack of vector bundles on a fixed algebraic curve in characteristic p. I will then discuss the actions of the various Frobenius morphisms and how to prove an analogue of the classical Weil conjectures for this moduli stack, which basically gives a stacky count of the number of isomorphism classes of vector bundles in charactersitic p.
