Abstract: A geometric construction of Getzler's cohomological relation in the moduli space of 4 pointed elliptic curves is given by a push-forward of a natural rational equivalence in a space of admissible covers. In particular, Getzler's relation is shown to be a rational equivalence. The recursion for the elliptic Gromov-Witten invariants of P^2 predicted by Eguchi, Hori, and Xiong from the Virasoro conjecture is proven via Getzler's equation and the WDVV-equations.

Review text

A geometric construction of Getzler's cohomological relation [\textit{E. Getzler}, J. Am. Math. Soc. 10, No. 4, 973-998 (1997; Zbl 0909.14002)] in the moduli space of 4 pointed elliptic curves is given by a push-forward of a natural rational equivalence in a space of admissible covers. In particular, Getzler's relation is shown to be a rational equivalence. The recursion for the elliptic Gromov-Witten invariants of \(\mathbb{P}^2\) predicted by \textit{T. Eguchi}, \textit{K. Hori} and \textit{Ch. Xiong} [``Quantum cohomology and Virasoro algebra, Phys. Lett. B 402, No. 1-2, 71-80 (1997; Zbl 0933.81048)] from the Virasoro conjecture is proven via Getzler's equation and the WDVV-equations.
