\(\pi_1\) of Miranda moduli spaces of elliptic surfaces. (English) Zbl 1499.14062

The author gives an explicit presentation of the fundamental group of the moduli space of (Weierstrass models) of elliptic surfaces over the projective line constructed by R. Miranda [Math. Ann. 255, 379–394 (1981; Zbl 0438.14023)] by relating it to a discriminant complement in a linear system on a Hirzebruch surface. He also discusses possible variants and generalisations of his approach.
