Integration on moduli spaces of stable curves through localization

Differential Geometry 2007-05-23 v1 Algebraic Geometry

Abstract

We introduce a new method of calculating intersections on \bar{M}_{g,n}, using localization of equivariant cohomology. As an application, we give a proof of Mirzakhani's recursion relation for calculating intersections of mixed psi and kappa_1 classes.
