“…This construction was given by Stoehr [St93], then improved by Contiero-Stoehr [CSt13] and generalized by Contiero-Fontes [CF18]. All these constructions can be viewed as a variant of Hauser's algorithm [Hau83,Hau85] to compute versal deformation spaces, see also [Stev13]. Next, in Section 4, we use this construction to give explicit equations for M S g,1 when S runs over the following families of symmetric semigroups, 6, 3 + 6τ, 4 + 6τ, 7 + 6τ, 8 + 6τ and 6, 1 + 6τ, 2 + 6τ, 3 + 6τ, 14 + 6τ and we show that M S g,1 is not empty in these cases by showing that the associated affine monomial curves C S can be negatively smoothable, c.f.…”
