Using the equivariant virtual cycle of the moduli space of stable maps to [C/Z_r], or equivalently, the vanishing of high-degree Chern classes of a certain vector bundle over the moduli space of stable maps to BZ_r, we derive relations in…

We give a proof of Pixton's generalized Faber-Zagier relations in the tautological Chow ring of $\overline M_{g,n}$. The strategy is very similar to the work of Pandharipande-Pixton-Zvonkine, who have given a proof of the same result in…

Pandharipande-Pixton-Zvonkine's proof of Pixton's generalized Faber-Zagier relations in the tautological ring of $\overline M_{g, n}$ has started the study of tautological relations from semisimple cohomological field theories. In this…

We show that the vanishing of the $(g+1)$-st power of the theta divisor in the cohomology and Chow rings of the universal abelian variety implies, by pulling back along a collection of Abel-Jacobi maps, the vanishing results in the…

Witten's class on the moduli space of 3-spin curves defines a (non-semisimple) cohomological field theory. After a canonical modification, we construct an associated semisimple CohFT with a non-trivial vanishing property obtained from the…

We prove a refinement of Pixton's formula for the double ramification cycle with target variety which takes into account the correlator of a rubber map previously introduced by the authors. To do so, we need to: reinterpret the correlator…

Let X be a nonsingular projective algebraic variety, and let S be a line bundle on X. Let A = (a_1,..., a_n) be a vector of integers. Consider a map f from a pointed curve (C,x_1,...,x_n) to X satisfying the following condition: the line…

Let $A=(a_1,\ldots,a_n)$ be a vector of integers with $d=\sum_{i=1}^n a_i$. By partial resolution of the classical Abel-Jacobi map, we construct a universal twisted double ramification cycle $\mathsf{DR}^{\mathsf{op}}_{g,A}$ as an…

In this paper, we obtain explicit expressions for Pandharipande-Pixton-Zvonkine relations in the second rational cohomology of $\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{g,n}$ and comparing the result with Arbarello-Cornalba's theorem we prove Pixton's…

Let $A = (a_1,\dots,a_n)\in \mathbb{Z}^n$ be a sequence with sum $k(2g-2+n)$. The double ramification cycle $\mathsf{DR}_g(A) \in \mathsf{CH}^g(\bar{\mathcal{M}}_{g,n})$ is the virtual class of the locus of curves $(C,p_1,\dots,p_n)$ where…

We define tautological relations for the moduli space of stable maps to a target variety. Using the double ramification cycle formula for target varieties of Janda-Pandharipande-Pixton-Zvonkine, we construct nontrivial tautological…

The double ramification cycle satisfies a basic multiplicative relation DRC(a).DRC(b) = DRC(a).DRC(a + b) over the locus of compact-type curves, but this relation fails in the Chow ring of the moduli space of stable curves. We restore this…

We describe a theory of logarithmic Chow rings and tautological subrings for logarithmically smooth algebraic stacks, via a generalisation of the notion of piecewise-polynomial functions. Using this machinery we prove that the double-double…

We construct a derived pushforward of the r-th root of the universal line bundle over the Picard stack of genus g prestable curves carrying a line bundle. We prove a number of basic properties, and give a formula in terms of standard…

In this paper, we consider double ramification cycles with orbifold targets. An explicit formula for double ramification cycles with orbifold targets, which is parallel to and generalizes the one known for the smooth case, is provided. Some…

Curves of genus g which admit a map to CP1 with specified ramification profile mu over 0 and nu over infinity define a double ramification cycle DR_g(mu,nu) on the moduli space of curves. The study of the restrictions of these cycles to the…

In this paper we study various properties of the double ramification hierarchy, an integrable hierarchy of hamiltonian PDEs introduced in [Bur15] using intersection theory of the double ramification cycle in the moduli space of stable…

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…

We derive a formula for the virtual class of the moduli space of rubber maps to $[\mathbb{P}^1/G]$ pushed forward to the moduli space of stable maps to $BG$. As an application, we show that the Gromov-Witten theory of $[\mathbb{P}^1/G]$…

We examine the logarithmic Gromov-Witten cycles of a toric variety relative to its full toric boundary. The cycles are expressed as products of double ramification cycles and natural tautological classes in the logarithmic Chow ring of the…
