We determine the rational Chow ring of the universal moduli space of rank $2$ semistable bundles over smooth curves of genus $2$, and show that it is generated by certain tautological classes. In the process, we obtain Chow rings of…

We prove a formula for the cycle class of the supersingular locus in the Chow ring with rational coefficients of the moduli space of principally polarized abelian varieties in characteristic $p$. This formula determines this class as a…

For $n\leq 6$, we compute the integral Chow ring of every modular compactification of $\mathcal{M}_{1,n}$ parametrising only Gorenstein curves with smooth, distinct markings. These include the Deligne--Mumford, Schubert, and Smyth…

We compute the integral Chow ring of the quotient stack $[(\mathbb{P}^1)^n/PGL_2]$, which contains $\mathcal{M}_{0,n}$ as a dense open, and determine a natural $\mathbb{Z}$-basis for the Chow ring in terms of certain ordered incidence…

We study a graded algebra D=D(L,G) defined by a finite lattice L and a subset G in L, a so-called building set. This algebra is a generalization of the cohomology algebras of hyperplane arrangement compactifications found in work of De…

A conjecture of Beauville and Voisin states that for an irreducible symplectic variety X, any polynomial relation between classes of divisors and the Chern classes of X which holds in cohomology already holds in the Chow groups. We verify…

We give minimal presentations for the $RO(C_2)$-graded Bredon cohomology of the equivariant classifying spaces $B_{C_2}U(n), B_{C_2}SO(n)$ and $B_{C_2}Sp(n)$ with coefficients in the rational Burnside Green functor $A_{\mathbf Q}$. This…

Classical and quantum Chern-Simons with gauge group $\text{U}(1)^N$ were classified by Belov and Moore in \cite{belov_moore}. They studied both ordinary topological quantum field theories as well as spin theories. On the other hand a…

We define the tautological ring as the subring of the Chow ring of a Shimura variety generated by all Chern classes of all automorphic bundles. We explain its structure for the special fiber of a good reduction of a Shimura variety of Hodge…

The space of all pencils of conics in the plane $\mathbb{P} V$ (where $\dim V = 3$) is a projective Grassmannian $\mathbb{G} (1, \mathbb{P} \mathrm{Sym}^2 V^*)$ and admits a natural $\mathrm{PGL}(V)$ action. It is a classical theorem that…

In the context of $ISO(2,1)$ gauge theory, we consider $(2+1)$-dimensional gravity with the gravitational Chern-Simons term (CST). This formulation allows the `exact' solution for the system coupled to a massive point particle (which is not…

We compute the additive structure of the $\mathrm{RO}(C_n)$-graded Bredon equivariant cohomology of the equivariant classifying space $B_{C_n}\mathrm{SU}(2)$, for any $n$ that is either prime or a product of distinct odd primes, and we also…

The Hurwitz space $\overline{\mathscr{H}}_{k,g}$ is a compactification of the space of smooth genus-$g$ curves with a simply-branched degree-$k$ map to $\mathbb{P}^1$. In this paper, we initiate a study of the Chow rings of these spaces,…

We compute the total Chow-Witt rings of the classifying space B\mu_n of the roots of unity, as well as the products BG_m x B\mu_n and B\mu_m x B\mu_n for all m,n greater than or equal to 1 based on the strategy by di Lorenzo and Mantovani…

We study the relationships between several varieties parametrizing marked curves with differentials in the literature. More precisely, we prove that the space $\mathcal{B}_n$ of multiscale differentials of genus 0 with $n+1$ marked points…

The integral equivariant Chow ring of S0(4) is computed via the geometry of ruled quadric surfaces in P^3.

We determine the Chow ring (with Q-coefficients) of M_6 by showing that all Chow classes are tautological. In particular, all algebraic cohomology is tautological, and the natural map from Chow to cohomology is injective. To demonstrate the…

We compute the Chow ring of a quasi-split geometrically almost simple algebraic group assuming the coefficients to be a field. This extends the classical computation for split groups done by Kac to the non-split quasi-split case. For the…

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…

For a Landau Ginzburg space ([C^n/G],W), we construct the Witten's top Chern classes as algebraic cycles via cosection localized virtual cycles in case all sectors are narrow. We verify all axioms of such classes. We derive an explicit…
