Abstract: We begin a study of the intersection theory of the moduli spaces of degree two stable maps from two-pointed rational curves to arbitrary-dimensional projective space. First we compute the Betti numbers of these spaces using Serre polynomial and equivariant Serre polynomial methods developed by E. Getzler and R. Pandharipande. Then, via the excision sequence, we compute an additive basis for their Chow rings in terms of Chow rings of nonlinear Grassmannians, which have been described by Pandharipande. The ring structure of one of these Chow rings is addressed in a sequel to this paper.

Review text

Let \(\overline{{\mathcal M}}_{g,n}({\mathbb{P}}^r,d)\) be the moduli space of stable maps from \(n\)-pointed, genus \(g\) curves to \({\mathbb{P}}^r\) of degree \(d\). In this paper the author computes the Poincaré polynomial of \(\overline{{\mathcal M}}_{0,2}({\mathbb{P}}^r,2)\), using what are called Serre characteristics in [\textit{E. Getzler} and \textit{R. Pandharipande}, J. Algebr. Geom. 15, No. 4, 709--732 (2006; Zbl 1114.14032)]. Serre characteristics are defined for varieties \(X\) over \(\mathbb{C}\) via the mixed Hodge theory of Deligne as follows. For a mixed Hodge structure \((V,F,W)\) over \(\mathbb{C}\), set \(V^{p,q}= F^p\text{gr}^W_{p+q} V\cap\overline F^q\text{gr}^W_{p+q} V\) and let \({\mathcal X}(V)\) be the Euler characteristic of \(V\) as a graded vector space. Then the Serre characteristic \(\text{Serre}(X)\) of \(X\)is defined to be \(\text{Serre}(X)= \sum^\infty_{p,q=0} u^p v^q{\mathcal X}(H^\bullet_c(X,\mathbb{C})^{p,q}))\). He employs the fact that \(\overline{{\mathcal M}}_{0,2}({\mathbb{P}}^r,2)\) is stratified according to the degeneration type of the stable maps. The compatibility of Serre characteristics with stratification allows him to compute of each stratum and add up the results to obtain \(\text{Serre}(\overline{{\mathcal M}}_{0,2}({\mathbb{P}}^r,2))\). In the final section, he also gives an additive basis for the Chow ring of \(\overline{{\mathcal M}}_{0,2}({\mathbb{P}}^r,2)\).
