Counting ramified coverings and intersection theory on Hurwitz spaces. II. Local structure of Hurwitz spaces and combinatorial results
D. Zvonkine Institut de Mathématiques de Jussieu
Abstract:
The Hurwitz space is a compactification of the space of rational functions of a given degree. We study the intersection of various strata of this space with its boundary. A study of the cohomology ring of the Hurwitz space then allows us to obtain recurrence relations for certain numbers of ramified coverings of a sphere by a sphere with prescribed ramifications. Generating functions for these numbers belong to a very particular subalgebra of the algebra of power series.
Key words and phrases:
Riemann surfaces, moduli space, ramified coverings, Lyashko–Looijenga map, Hurwitz space, Hurwitz numbers.
