AbstractIn this paper we prove that the cone of effective divisors on the Kontsevich moduli spaces of stable maps, , stabilize when r ≥ d. We give a complete characterization of the effective divisors on . They are non-negative linear combinations of boundary divisors and the divisor of maps with degenerate image.

We compare the Kontsevich moduli space [Formula: see text] of stable maps to projective space with the quasi-map space ℙ( Sym d(ℂ2) ⊗ ℂn)//SL(2). Consider the birational map [Formula: see text] which assigns to an n tuple of degree d homogeneous polynomials f1, …, fn in two variables, the map f = (f1 : ⋯ : fn) : ℙ1 → ℙn-1. In this paper, for d = 3, we prove that [Formula: see text] is the composition of three blow-ups followed by two blow-downs. Furthermore, we identify the blow-up/down centers explicitly in terms of the moduli spaces [Formula: see text] with d = 1, 2. In particular, [Formula: see text] is the SL(2)-quotient of a smooth rational projective variety. The degree two case [Formula: see text], which is the blow-up of ℙ( Sym 2ℂ2 ⊗ ℂn)//SL(2) along ℙn-1, is worked out as a preliminary example.

AbstractWe analyze the relationship between two compactifications of the moduli space of maps from curves to a Grassmannian: the Kontsevich moduli space of stable maps and the Marian–Oprea–Pandharipande moduli space of stable quotients. We construct a moduli space which dominates both the moduli space of stable maps to a Grassmannian and the moduli space of stable quotients, and equip our moduli space with a virtual fundamental class. We relate the virtual fundamental classes of all three moduli spaces using the virtual push-forward formula. This gives a new proof of a theorem of Marian–Oprea–Pandharipande: that enumerative invariants defined as intersection numbers in the stable quotient moduli space coincide with Gromov–Witten invariants.

AbstractWe give a construction of the moduli space of stable maps to the classifying stack Bμr of a cyclic group by a sequence of rth root constructions on $\overline {M}_{0, n}$. We prove a closed formula for the total Chern class of μr-eigenspaces of the Hodge bundle, and thus of the obstruction bundle of the genus-zero Gromov–Witten theory of stacks of the form [ℂN/μr]. We deduce linear recursions for genus-zero Gromov–Witten invariants.

AbstractA great number of theoretical results are known about log Gromov–Witten invariants (Abramovich and Chen in Asian J Math 18:465–488, 2014; Chen in Ann Math (2) 180:455–521, 2014; Gross and Siebert J Am Math Soc 26: 451–510, 2013), but few calculations are worked out. In this paper we restrict to surfaces and to genus 0 stable log maps of maximal tangency. We ask how various natural components of the moduli space contribute to the log Gromov–Witten invariants. The first such calculation (Gross et al. in Duke Math J 153:297–362, 2010, Proposition 6.1) by Gross–Pandharipande–Siebert deals with multiple covers over rigid curves in the log Calabi–Yau setting. As a natural continuation, in this paper we compute the contributions of non-rigid irreducible curves in the log Calabi–Yau setting and that of the union of two rigid curves in general position. For the former, we construct and study a moduli space of “logarithmic” 1-dimensional sheaves and compare the resulting multiplicity with tropical multiplicity. For the latter, we explicitly describe the components of the moduli space and work out the logarithmic deformation theory in full, which we then compare with the deformation theory of the analogous relative stable maps.

Abstract.We produce ample (resp. NEF, eventually free) divisors in the Kontsevich space of n-pointed, genus 0, stable maps to ℙr, given such divisors in We prove that this produces all ample (resp. NEF, eventually free) divisors in As a consequence, we construct a contraction of the boundary analogous to a contraction of the boundary first constructed by Keel and McKernan.
