Curves with prescribed intersection with boundary divisors in moduli spaces of curves

Xiao-Lei Liu

Vol. 283 (2016), No. 2, 365–380
Abstract

We construct curves in moduli spaces of curves with prescribed intersection with boundary divisors. As applications, we obtain families of curves with maximal slope as well as extremal test curves for the weakly positive cone of the moduli space.

Keywords
intersection, boundary divisors, moduli spaces of curves
