The Chen-Ruan cohomology of moduli of curves of genus 2 with marked points

摘要

In this work we describe the Chen-Ruan cohomology of the moduli stack of smooth and stable genus 2 curves with marked points. In the first half of the paper we compute the additive structure of the Chen-Ruan cohomology ring for the moduli stack of stable n-pointed genus 2 curves, describing it as a rationally graded vector space. In the second part we give generators for the even Chen-Ruan cohomology ring as an algebra on the ordinary cohomology.
