Stability conditions and moduli spaces on projective families

We extend the construction of stability conditions on projective schemes over a field to projective families over an arbitrary base, and prove that they admit proper relative moduli spaces of semistable objects. We also prove a number of complementary results: the existence of mass-Hom bounds for these stability conditions, as conjectured by Halpern-Leistner and Robotis; a comparison with tilt-stability on surfaces and threefolds; a construction of stability conditions on the supported derived category of total spaces of certain vector bundles, including all local Calabi–Yau varieties; and a simple new proof of Bondal and Orlov’s reconstruction theorem.
