abstract

We define a collection $\Theta_{g,n}\in H^{4g-4+2n}(\overline{\cal M}_{g,n},\mathbb{Q})$ for $2g-2+n>0$ of cohomology classes that restrict naturally to boundary divisors. We prove that the intersection numbers $\int_{\overline{\cal M}_{g,n}}\Theta_{g,n}\prod_{i=1}^n\psi_i^{m_i}$ can be recursively calculated. We conjecture that a generating function for these intersection numbers is a tau function of the KdV hierarchy. This is analogous to the conjecture of Witten proven by Kontsevich that a generating function for the intersection numbers $\int_{\overline{\cal M}_{g,n}}\prod_{i=1}^n\psi_i^{m_i}$ is a tau function of the KdV hierarchy.

  1. Virasoro Constraints for Drinfeld-Sokolov hierarchies and equations of Painlev\'{e} type

    nlin.SI 2019-08 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    A unified tau cover and Virasoro constraints for Drinfeld-Sokolov hierarchies over arbitrary affine Kac-Moody algebras yield Painleve-type equations with affine Weyl group actions.

  2. Universal Correlators on Exponentially Ramified Spectral Curves

    math-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Generalized topological recursion extends to spectral curves with essential singularities by replacing residues at the essential point with residues at ordinary meromorphic points.

  3. Quantum Curves in the Context of Symplectic Duality

    math-ph 2025-04 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Quantum spectral curve operators for arbitrary base points can be derived by applying x-y and symplectic duality transformations to simpler spectral curves.
