A Very Simple Estimate Of Rational Homological Dimension Of Moduli Spaces Of Riemann Surfaces With Boundary And Marked Points

Abstract

The moduli spaces of compact and connected Riemann surfaces has been a central topic in modern mathematics in recent years. Thus their homological dimensions become important invariants. Motivated by the emergence mathematical counterparts of open-closed string theory, we give an estimate of rational homological dimension of Riemann suraces with possible boundary and marked points(can lie on both interior and boundary). We hope it will have applications in open-closed theory, for example, open-closed Gromov-Witten theory in the future.
