A calculus for the moduli space of curves

R Pandharipande - Algebraic Geometry: Salt Lake City, 2015 - books.google.com
I survey the recent advances in the study of tautological classes on the moduli spaces of
curves. After discussing the Faber-Zagier relations on the moduli spaces of nonsingular …

Tautological relations via r-spin structures

R Pandharipande, A Pixton, D Zvonkine - arXiv preprint arXiv:1607.00978, 2016 - arxiv.org
Relations among tautological classes on the moduli space of stable curves are obtained via
the study of Witten's r-spin theory for higher r. In order to calculate the quantum product, a …

Pixton's double ramification cycle relations

E Clader, F Janda - Geometry & Topology, 2018 - msp.org
We prove a conjecture of Pixton, namely that his proposed formula for the double
ramification cycle on M ̄ g, n vanishes in codimension beyond g. This yields a collection of …

A brief survey of FJRW theory

A Francis, T Jarvis, N Priddis - arXiv preprint arXiv:1503.01223, 2014 - projecteuclid.org
In this paper we describe some of the constructions of FJRW theory. We also briefly describe
its relation to Saito-Givental theory via Landau-Ginzburg mirror symmetry and its relation to …

The hypergeometric functions of the Faber-Zagier and Pixton relations

A Buryak, F Janda, R Pandharipande - arXiv preprint arXiv:1502.05150, 2015 - arxiv.org
The relations in the tautological ring of the moduli space M_g of nonsingular curves
conjectured by Faber-Zagier in 2000 and extended to the moduli space of stable pointed …

Frobenius manifolds near the discriminant and relations in the tautological ring

F Janda - Letters in Mathematical Physics, 2018 - Springer
We give a criterion for extending a generically semisimple (not necessarily conformal)
Frobenius manifold locally near a smooth point of the discriminant to a cohomological field …

The tautological ring of via Pandharipande-Pixton-Zvonkine -spin relations

R Kramer, F Labib, D Lewanski, S Shadrin - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2017 - arxiv.org
We use relations in the tautological ring of the moduli spaces $\overline {\mathcal {M}} _ {g,
n} $ derived by Pandharipande, Pixton, and Zvonkine from the Givental formula for the $ r …

Topological recursion relations from Pixton relations

YJ Lin, J Zhou - Acta Mathematica Sinica, English Series, 2017 - Springer
We propose an algorithm to derive tautological relations from Pixton relations. We carry out
this algorithm explicitly to derive some results in genus 0, 1, 2, 3 and analyze the possibility …

Relations on\overline {ℳ} _ {ℊ, 𝓃} via orbifold stable maps

E Clader - Proceedings of the American Mathematical Society, 2017 - ams.org
Using the equivariant virtual cycle of the moduli space of stable maps to $[\mathbb
{C}/\mathbb {Z} _r] $, or equivalently, the vanishing of high-degree Chern classes of a …

[PDF][PDF] Relations in the tautological ring

F Janda - 2015 - research-collection.ethz.ch
The tautological ring of the moduli space of curves is the ring generated by algebraic cycles
of geometric origin. While it has been well-studied, its structure is not yet completely …
