The cycle classes of divisorial Maroni loci

Algebraic Geometry 2016-05-26 v3

Abstract

We determine the cycle classes of effective divisors in the compactified Hurwitz spaces of curves of genus g with a linear system of degree d that extend the Maroni divisors on the open Hurwitz space. Our approach uses Chern classes associated to a global-to-local evaluation map of a vector bundle over a generic P1P^1-bundle over the Hurwitz space.
