A new proof of Faber's intersection number conjecture

Abstract

We give a new proof of Faber's intersection number conjecture concerning the top intersections in the tautological ring of the moduli space of curves \Mg\M_g. The proof is based on a very straightforward geometric and combinatorial computation with double ramification cycles.
