We give an Eynard-Orantin type topological recursion formula for the canonical Euclidean volume of the combinatorial moduli space of pointed smooth algebraic curves. The recursion comes from the edge removal operation on the space of ribbon graphs. As an application we obtain a new proof of the Kontsevich constants for the ratio of the Euclidean and the symplectic volumes of the moduli space of curves.

This article accompanies my lecture at the 2015 AMS summer institute in algebraic geometry in Salt Lake City. I survey the recent advances in the study of tautological classes on the moduli spaces of curves. After discussing the Faber-Zagier relation
s on the moduli spaces of nonsingular curves and the kappa rings of the moduli spaces of curves of compact type, I present Pixtons proposal for a complete calculus of tautological classes on the moduli spaces of stable curves. Several open questions are discussed. An effort has been made to condense a great deal of mathematics into as few pages as possible with the hope that the reader will follow through to the end.
This paper is built on the following observation: the purity of the mixed Hodge structure on the cohomology of Browns moduli spaces is essentially equivalent to the freeness of the dihedral operad underlying the gravity operad. We prove these two fac
ts by relying on both the geometric and the algebraic aspects of the problem: the complete geometric description of the cohomology of Browns moduli spaces and the coradical filtration of cofree cooperads. This gives a conceptual proof of an identity of Bergstrom-Brown which expresses the Betti numbers of Browns moduli spaces via the inversion of a generating series. This also generalizes the Salvatore-Tauraso theorem on the nonsymmetric Lie operad.
The moduli space of stable vector bundles on a Riemann surface is smooth when the rank and degree are coprime, and is diffeomorphic to the space of unitary connections of central constant curvature. A classic result of Newstead and Atiyah-Bott assert
s that its rational cohomology ring is generated by the universal classes, that is, by the Kunneth components of the Chern classes of the universal bundle. This paper studies the larger, non-compact moduli space of Higgs bundles, as introduced by Hitchin and Simpson, with values in the canonical bundle K. This is diffeomorphic to the space of all connections of central constant curvature, whether unitary or not. The main result of the paper is that, in the rank 2 case, the rational cohomology ring of this space is again generated by universal classes. The spaces of Higgs bundles with values in K(n) for n > 0 turn out to be essential to the story. Indeed, we show that their direct limit has the homotopy type of the classifying space of the gauge group, and hence has cohomology generated by universal classes. A companion paper treats the problem of finding relations between these generators in the rank 2 case.
Rapid developments in genetics and biology have led to phylogenetic methods becoming an important direction in the study of cancer and viral evolution. Although our understanding of gene biology and biochemistry has increased and is increasing at a r
emarkable rate, the theoretical models of genetic evolution still use the phylogenetic tree model that was introduced by Darwin in 1859 and the generalization to phylogenetic networks introduced by Grant in 1971. Darwins model uses phylogenetic trees to capture the evolutionary relationships of reproducing individuals [6]; Grants generalization to phylogenetic networks is meant to account for the phenomena of horizontal gene transfer [14]. Therefore, it is important to provide an accurate mathematical description of these models and to understand their connection with other fields of mathematics. In this article, we focus on the graph theoretical aspects of phylogenetic trees and networks and their connection to stable curves. We introduce the building blocks of evolutionary moduli spaces, the dual intersection complex of the moduli spaces of stable curves, and the categorical relationship between the phylogenetic spaces and stable curves in $overline{mathfrak{M}}_{0,n}(mathbb{C})$ and $overline{mathfrak{M}}_{0,n}(mathbb{R})$. We also show that the space of network topologies maps injectively into the boundary of $overline{mathfrak{M}}_{g,n}(mathbb{C})$.
The slope of the moduli space of genus g curves is bounded from below by 60/(g+4) via a descendent calculation.
