Let $\mathscr{J}^d_g \to \mathscr{M}_g$ be the universal Picard stack parametrizing degree $d$ line bundles on genus $g$ curves, and let $\mathscr{J}^d_{2,g}$ be its restriction to locus of hyperelliptic curves $\mathscr{H}_{2,g} \subset…

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,…

The purpose of this dissertation is to study the intersection theory of the moduli spaces of stable maps of degree two from two-pointed, genus zero nodal curves to arbitrary-dimensional projective space. Toward this end, first the Betti…

We compute the Chow rings with integral coefficients of moduli stacks of minimal Weierstrass fibrations over the projective line. For each integer $N\geq 1$, there is a moduli stack $\mathcal{W}^{\mathrm{min}}_N$ parametrizing minimal…

We begin a study of the intersection theory of the moduli spaces of degree two stable maps from two-pointed rational curves to arbitrary-dimensional projective space. First we compute the Betti numbers of these spaces using Serre polynomial…

Given a separated scheme $X$ of finite type over a finite field, its higher Chow groups $CH_{-1}(X, 1)$ and $CH_{-2}(X, 3)$ are computed explicitly.

We study the integral Chow ring of the stack $\mathcal{H}_{g,n}$ parametrizing $n$-pointed smooth hyperelliptic curves of genus $g$. We compute the integral Chow ring of $\mathcal{H}_{g,n}$ for $n=1,2$ completely, while for $3\leq…

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 $n\leq 6$, 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 study the Chow ring with rational coefficients of the moduli space $\mathcal F_{2}$ of quasi-polarized $K3$ surfaces of degree $2$. We find generators, relations, and calculate the Chow Betti numbers. The highest nonvanishing Chow group…

A Hadwiger-type theorem for the exceptional Lie groups $G_2$ and $Spin(7)$ is proved. The algebras of $G_2$ or $Spin(7)$ invariant, translation invariant continuous valuations are both of dimension 10. Geometrically meaningful bases are…

We continue the study of the Chow ring of the moduli stack $\mathfrak{M}_{g,n}$ of prestable curves begun in [arXiv:2012.09887v2]. In genus $0$, we show that the Chow ring of $\mathfrak{M}_{0,n}$ coincides with the tautological ring and…

We define an `enriched' notion of Chow groups for algebraic varieties, agreeing with the conventional notion for complete varieties, but enjoying a functorial push-forward for arbitrary maps. This tool allows us to glue…

We compute the integral Chow rings of the stacks ${\mathcal H}_{g,n}^w$ parametrizing hyperelliptic curves with $n$ marked Weierstrass points. We prove that the integral Chow rings of each of these stacks is generated as an algebra by any…

This paper gives computations of all the $G$-theory groups of several classes of simplicial toric varieties, including all affine toric surfaces when the base field is algebraically closed and has characteristic zero, all weighted…

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…

We use the Steenrod algebra to study $CH^*BG$, the mod $p$ Chow ring of the classifying space of $G$. We describe a localization property which relates a given $G$ to its elementary abelian subgroups, and we study a number of particular…

We introduce a notion of integration on the category of proper birational maps to a given variety $X$, with value in an associated Chow group. Applications include new birational invariants; comparison results for Chern classes and numbers…

In this paper we calculate the ring of unstable (possibly non-additive) operations from algebraic Morava K-theory K(n) to Chow groups with $\mathbb{Z}_{(p)}$-coefficients. More precisely, we prove that it is a formal power series ring on…

We show that for a K3 surface X the finitely generated subring R(X) of the Chow ring introduced by Beauville and Voisin is preserved under derived equivalences. This is proved by analyzing Chern characters of spherical bundles. As for a K3…
