The cohomology of Kontesevich’s stack of stable maps to Pⁿ, the case of conics

In this thesis we consider the singular cohomology of M₀,₀(Pⁿ,2), the coarse moduli space associated to Kontsevich's stack of degree two stable maps to Pⁿ, M₀,₀(Pⁿ,2). We show that the cohomology ring is generated by a divisor d which corresponds to the locus of pairs (C,g) with C reducible, an...
