Let $\bar{M}_{0,n}(G(r,V), d)$ be the coarse moduli space of stable degree $d$ maps from $n$-pointed genus $0$ curves to a Grassmann variety $G(r,V)$. We provide a recursive method for the computation of the Hodge numbers and the Betti…
We study the Chow ring of the moduli stack $\mathfrak{M}_{g,n}$ of prestable curves and define the notion of tautological classes on this stack. We extend formulas for intersection products and functoriality of tautological classes under…
The rational Chow ring of the moduli space $\mathcal{M}_g$ of curves of genus $g$ is known for $g \leq 6$. Here, we determine the rational Chow rings of $\mathcal{M}_7, \mathcal{M}_8,$ and $\mathcal{M}_9$ by showing they are tautological.…

We describe the Chow ring with rational coefficients of Mbar_{0,1}(P^n,d) as the subring of invariants of a ring B(Mbar_{0,1}(P^n,d);Q), relative to the action of the group of symmetries S_d. We compute B(Mbar_{0,1}(P^n,d);Q) by following a…
In this paper we compute the integral Chow ring of the moduli space of stable elliptic curves with three marked points by combining several patching techniques, including higher Chow groups with $\ell$-adic coefficients.
Motivated by the computation of the BPS-invariants on a local Calabi-Yau threefold suggested by S. Katz, we compute the Chow ring and the cohomology ring of the moduli space of stable sheaves of Hilbert polynomial $4m+1$ on the projective…
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…

In this work, we introduce the moduli stack $\widetilde{\mathcal{M}}_{g,n}^r$ of $n$-pointed, $A_r$-stable curves of genus $g$ and use it to compute the Chow ring of $\overline{\mathcal{M}}_3$. As a byproduct, we also compute the Chow ring…
Introduced in [BB], simplicially stable spaces are alternative compactifications of $\mathcal{M}_{g,n}$ generalizing Hassett's moduli spaces of weighted stable curves. We give presentations of the Chow rings of these spaces in genus $0$…
We define the logarithmic tautological rings of the moduli spaces of Deligne-Mumford stable curves (together with a set of additive generators lifting the decorated strata classes of the standard tautological rings). While these algebras…
