On the $S_n$-invariant F-conjecture

Algebraic Geometry 2017-03-01 v3

Abstract

By using classical invariant theory, we reduce the SnS_{n}-invariant F-conjecture to a feasibility problem in polyhedral geometry. We show by computer that for n19n \le 19, every integral SnS_{n}-invariant F-nef divisor on the moduli space of genus zero stable pointed curves is semi-ample, over arbitrary characteristic. Furthermore, for n16n \le 16, we show that for every integral SnS_{n}-invariant nef (resp. ample) divisor DD on the moduli space, 2D2D is base-point-free (resp. very ample). As applications, we obtain the nef cone of the moduli space of stable curves without marked points, and the semi-ample cone that of the moduli space of genus 0 stable maps to Grassmannian for small numerical values.
