Abstract: Hurwitz correspondences are certain multivalued self-maps of the moduli space $mathcal{M}_{0,N}$. They arise in the study of Thurston's topological characterization of rational functions. We consider the dynamics of Hurwitz correspondences and ask: On which compactifications of $mathcal{M}_{0,N}$ should they be studied? We compare a Hurwitz correspondence $mathcalH$ across various modular compactifications of $mathcal{M}_{0,N}$, and find a weighted stable curves compactification $X_N^{d}agger$ that is optimal for its dynamics. We use $X_N^{d}agger$ to show that the $k$th dynamical degree of $mathcalH$ is the absolute value of the dominant eigenvalue of the pushforward induced by $mathcalH$ on a natural quotient of $H_{2k}(overline{mathcalM}_{0,N})$.

Review text

Hurwitz correspondences are certain multi-valued self-maps of the moduli space \(\mathcal{M}_{0,N}\). They arise in the study of Thurston's topological characterization of rational functions. In article was compared the dynamics of Hurwitz correspondence \(\mathcal{H}\) on two different compactifications of \(\mathcal{M}_{0,N}\): the Deligne- Mumford compactification \(\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{0,N}\), as well as a Hassett space of weighted stable curves. Further this comparison was used to show that the \(k\)-th dynamical degree of \(\mathcal{H}\) is the absolute value of the dominant eigenvalue of the pushforward induced by \(\mathcal{H}\) on a natural quotient of \(H_{2k}(\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{0,N})\). The structure of the paper is as follows. The third chapter is an agreement on the choice of notations and definitions. Sections 4 through 7 give background on, in order, rational correspondences, Hurwitz correspondences, compactifications of \(\mathcal{M}_{0,N}\), and the admissible covers compactifications of Hurwitz spaces. Main results are in Sections 8, 9, and 10. In Section 8, was shown that Hurwitz correspondences are \(k\)-stable on \(\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{0,N}\). In Section 9, was shown they preserve a natural filtration of \(H_{2k}(\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{0,N})\). In Section 10, alternate compactifications of \(\mathcal{M}_{0,N}\) was used to investigate where in this filtration the dynamical degree lies.
