We construct and prove the projectiveness of the moduli spaces which are natural generalizations to the case of surfaces of the following: 1) $M_{g,n}$, the moduli space of $n$-marked stable curves, 2) $M_{g,n}(W)$, the moduli space of…

Let $M_g$ be the moduli space of smooth genus $g$ curves. We define a notion of Chow groups of $M_g$ with coefficients in a representation of $Sp(2g)$, and we define a subgroup of tautological classes in these Chow groups with twisted…

We introduce a factorization for the map between moduli spaces of stable maps which forgets one marked point. This leads to a study of universal relations in the cohomology of stable map spaces in genus zero.

We study classes of strata of differentials with fixed spin parity in the Chow ring of moduli spaces of curves. We show that these classes are tautological and computable. Furthermore, we establish the refined DR cycle formula for these…

We study constructible invariants of the moduli space $\overline{\mathcal{M}}(\boldsymbol{x})$ of stable maps from genus zero curves to $\mathbb{P}^1$, relative to $0$ and $\infty$, with ramification profiles specified by…

For $L \hookrightarrow X$ a Lagrangian embedding associated with a real homogeneous space, we construct the moduli space of stable holomorphic discs mapping to $(X,L)$ as an orbifold with corners equipped with a group action. Some essential…

We present a conjecture for the Chow ring of the universal moduli stack of bundles over hyperelliptic curves and prove it for rank and genus two. Consequently, we obtain explicit generators and relations to conclude that the Chow ring is…

In this paper we prove that the rational Chow rings of $\mathcal{M}_{5,8}$ and $\mathcal{M}_{5,9}$ are tautological, and that these moduli spaces have the Chow K\"unneth generation Property.

Using the compactified universal jacobian over the moduli space of stable marked curves, we give an expression in terms of natural classes of the zero section of the compactified universal jacobian the (rational) Chow ring. After extending…

Representations of certain vertex algebras, here called of CohFT-type, can be used to construct vector bundles of coinvariants and conformal blocks on moduli spaces of stable curves [DGT2]. We show that such bundles define semisimple…

We study some aspects of the $\lambda_g$ pairing on the tautological ring of $M_g^c$, the moduli space of genus $g$ stable curves of compact type. We consider pairing kappa classes with pure boundary strata, all tautological classes…

We compute the homotopy type of the moduli space of flat, unitary connections over aspherical surfaces, after stabilizing with respect to the rank of the underlying bundle. Over the orientable surface M^g, we show that this space has the…

We generalize the results of Chang-Li, Kim-Oh and Chang-Li on the moduli of $p$-fields to the setting of (quasi-)maps to complete intersections in arbitrary smooth Deligne-Mumford stacks with projective coarse moduli. In particular, we show…

In this paper we study properties of the Chow ring of rational homogeneous varieties of classical type, more concretely, effective zero divisors of low codimension, and a related invariant called effective good divisibility. This…

Let $S$ be a birationally ruled surface. We show that the moduli schemes $M_S(r,c_1,c_2)$ of semistable sheaves on $S$ of rank $r$ and Chern classes $c_1$ and $c_2$ are irreducible for all $(r,c_1,c_2)$ provided the polarization of $S$ used…

We construct a finite dimensional Kaehler manifold with a holomorphic, symplectic circle action whose symplectic reduced spaces may be identified with the tau-vortex moduli spaces (or tau-stable pairs). The Morse theory of the circle action…

We study a space of genus $g$ stable, $n$-marked tropical curves with total edge length $1$. Its rational homology is identified both with top-weight cohomology of the complex moduli space $M_{g,n}$ and with the homology of a marked version…

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…

In this paper, we study the basic structures of degree-$g$ topological recursion relations on the moduli space of curves $\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{g,n}$: (i) The coefficient of the bouquet class on $\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{g,n}$, which gives…

This paper computes the integral Chow ring of the moduli space $M_2^{ct}$ of stable genus 2 curves of compact type. This is done by excising boundary strata from $\bar M_2$ one-by-one. During this process, we determine the Chow rings of all…
