Chow rings of stacks of prestable curves II
Abstract
We continue the study of the Chow ring of the moduli stack of prestable curves begun in [arXiv:2012.09887v2]. In genus , we show that the Chow ring of coincides with the tautological ring and give a complete description in terms of (additive) generators and relations. This generalizes earlier results by Keel and Kontsevich-Manin for the spaces of stable curves. Our argument uses the boundary stratification of the moduli stack together with the study of the first higher Chow groups of the strata, in particular providing a new proof of the results of Kontsevich and Manin.

This paper is the second part of the previous paper [arXiv:2012.09887v1] which has been split off due to length; for the first part [arXiv:2012.09887v2], an appendix (joint with J. Skowera) about proper pushforwards for Chow groups of Artin stacks has been added. 68 pages. Comments are very welcome!
