Recursion Formulae of Higher Weil-petersson Volumes

چکیده
Abstract. In this paper we study effective recursion formulae for computing intersection numbers of mixed ψ and κ classes on moduli spaces of curves. By using the celebrated WittenKontsevich theorem, we generalize Mulase-Safnuk form of Mirzakhani’s recursion and prove a recursion formula of higher Weil-Petersson volumes. We also present recursion formulae to compute intersection pairings in the tautological rings of moduli spaces of curves.

A Simple Proof of Mirzakhani’s Recursion Formula of Weil-petersson Volumes
In this paper, we give a simple proof of Mirzakhani's recursion formula of Weil-Petersson volumes of moduli spaces of curves using the Witten-Kontsevich theorem. We also briefly describe a very general recursive phenomenon in the intersection theory of moduli spaces of curves. In particular, we present several new recursion formulas for higher degree κ classes.
متن کاملRecursions and Asymptotics of Intersection Numbers
We establish the asymptotic expansion of certain integrals of ψ classes on moduli spaces of curves Mg,n when either the g or n goes to infinity. Our main tools are cut-join type recursion formulae from the WittenKontsevich theorem as well as asymptotics of solutions to the first Painlevé equation. We also raise a conjecture on large genus asymptotics for n-point functions of ψ classes and parti...
متن کاملWeil-Petersson volume of moduli spaces, Mirzakhani’s recursion and matrix models
We prove that Mirzakhani’s recursions for the volumes of moduli space of Riemann surfaces are a special case of random matrix recursion relations, and therefore we confirm again that Kontsevich’s integral is a generating function for those volumes. As an application, we propose a formula for the Weil-Petersson volume Vol(Mg,0).

متن کاملNew results of intersection numbers on moduli spaces of curves.
We present a series of results we obtained recently about the intersection numbers of tautological classes on moduli spaces of curves, including a simple formula of the n-point functions for Witten's tau classes, an effective recursion formula to compute higher Weil-Petersson volumes, several new recursion formulae of intersection numbers and our proof of a conjecture of Itzykson and Zuber conc...
