AbstractWe present a simple description of moduli spaces of torsion-free 𝒟-modules (𝒟-bundles) on general smooth complex curves, generalizing the identification of the space of ideals in the Weyl algebra with Calogero–Moser quiver varieties. Namely, we show that the moduli of 𝒟-bundles form twisted cotangent bundles to moduli of torsion sheaves on X, answering a question of Ginzburg. The corresponding (untwisted) cotangent bundles are identified with moduli of perverse vector bundles on T*X, which contain as open subsets the moduli of framed torsion-free sheaves (the Hilbert schemes T*X[n] in the rank-one case). The proof is based on the description of the derived category of 𝒟-modules on X by a noncommutative version of the Beilinson transform on P1.

This article treats various aspects of the geometry of the moduli [Formula: see text] of r-spin curves and its compactification [Formula: see text]. Generalized spin curves, or r-spin curves, are a natural generalization of 2-spin curves (algebraic curves with a theta-characteristic), and have been of interest lately because of the similarities between the intersection theory of these moduli spaces and that of the moduli of stable maps. In particular, these spaces are the subject of a remarkable conjecture of E. Witten relating their intersection theory to the Gelfand–Dikii (KdVr) heirarchy. There is also a W-algebra conjecture for these spaces [16] generalizing the Virasoro conjecture of quantum cohomology. For any line bundle [Formula: see text] on the universal curve over the stack of stable curves, there is a smooth stack [Formula: see text] of triples (X, ℒ, b) of a smooth curve X, a line bundle ℒ on X, and an isomorphism [Formula: see text]. In the special case that [Formula: see text] is the relative dualizing sheaf, then [Formula: see text] is the stack [Formula: see text] of r-spin curves. We construct a smooth compactification [Formula: see text] of the stack [Formula: see text], describe the geometric meaning of its points, and prove that its coarse moduli is projective. We also prove that when r is odd and g>1, the compactified stack of spin curves [Formula: see text] and its coarse moduli space [Formula: see text] are irreducible, and when r is even and [Formula: see text] is the disjoint union of two irreducible components. We give similar results for n-pointed spin curves, as required for Witten's conjecture, and also generalize to the n-pointed case the classical fact that when [Formula: see text] is the disjoint union of d(r) components, where d(r) is the number of positive divisors of r. These irreducibility properties are important in the study of the Picard group of [Formula: see text] [15], and also in the study of the cohomological field theory related to Witten's conjecture [16, 34].

AbstractWe give a rigorous definition of tropical fans (the ‘local building blocks for tropical varieties’) and their morphisms. For a morphism of tropical fans of the same dimension we show that the number of inverse images (counted with suitable tropical multiplicities) of a point in the target does not depend on the chosen point; a statement that can be viewed as one of the important first steps of tropical intersection theory. As an application we consider the moduli spaces of rational tropical curves (both abstract and in some ℝr) together with the evaluation and forgetful morphisms. Using our results this gives new, easy and unified proofs of various tropical independence statements, e.g. of the fact that the numbers of rational tropical curves (in any ℝr) through given points are independent of the points.

Abstract We interpret the degrees which arise in Tevelev’s study of scattering amplitudes in terms of moduli spaces of Hurwitz covers. Via excess intersection theory, the boundary geometry of the Hurwitz moduli space yields a simple recursion for the Tevelev degrees (together with their natural two parameter generalisation). We find exact solutions which specialise to Tevelev’s formula in his cases and connect to the projective geometry of lines and Castelnuovo’s classical count of $g^1_d$ ’s in other cases. For almost all values, the calculation of the two parameter generalisation of the Tevelev degree is new. A related count of refined Dyck paths is solved along the way.
