Abstract: In a series of recent papers, Chiodo, Farkas and Ludwig carry out a deep analysis of the singular locus of the moduli space of stable (twisted) curves with an $ell$-torsion line bundle. They show that for $ellleq6$ and $elleq5$ pluricanonical forms extend over any desingularization. This allows to compute the Kodaira dimension without desingularizing, as done by Farkas and Ludwig for $ell=2$, and by Chiodo, Eisenbud, Farkas and Schreyer for $ell=3$. Here we treat roots of line bundles on the universal curve systematically: we consider the moduli space of curves $C$ with a line bundle $L$ such that $L^{otimesell}congomeg{a}_C^{otimesk}$. New loci of canonical and non-canonical singularities appear for any $kotinellmathbbZ$ and $ell>2$, we provide a set of combinatorial tools allowing us to completely describe the singular locus in terms of dual graph. We characterize the locus of non-canonical singularities, and for small values of $ell$ we give an explicit description.
