Abstract: For a proper local embedding between two Deligne--Mumford stacks Y and X, we find, under certain mild conditions, a new (possibly non-separated) Deligne--Mumford stack X', with an etale, surjective and universally closed map to the target X, and whose fiber product with the image of the local embedding is a finite union of stacks with corresponding etale, surjective and universally closed maps to Y. Moreover, a natural set of weights on the substacks of X' allows the construction of a universally closed push-forward, and thus a comparison between the Chow groups of X' and X. We apply the construction above to the computation of the Chern classes of a weighted blow-up along a regular local embedding via deformation to a weighted normal cone and localization. We describe the stack X' in the case when X is the moduli space of stable maps with local embeddings at the boundary. We apply the methods above to find the Chern classes of the stable map spaces.

Review text

This paper develops some fundamental intersection theory of Deligne-Mumford stacks, building on earlier work of \textit{A. Vistoli} [Invent. Math. 97, No. 3, 613--670 (1989; Zbl 0694.14001)] and \textit{A. Kresch} [Invent. Math. 136, No. 3, 483--496 (1999; Zbl 0923.14003), by providing a more global framework which properly encodes global geometric information such as Chern classes and Chow ring structures. This machinery is applied, for instance, to certain weighted blow-ups, and more specifically, to the setting of moduli of stable maps, building on earlier work of the authors. More precisely, the paper begins by developing machinery to in essence transform a proper local embedding of DM stacks into an actual embedding, via a fiber-product arising from a universally closed morphism that they construct. This construction provides the technical backbone of all intersection-theoretic work that follows, the main results of which are nicely described in the introduction. The first application is to Chern classes of weighted blow-ups. This is further applied to moduli of stable maps and intermediate weighted stable maps, which are spaces introduced in earlier work of the Mustatas as modular interpretations of the intermediate stages of an iterated blow-up occurring in a construction of the usual Kontsevich moduli space. Finally, the paper includes an appendix on the Euler sequence of a weighted projective bundle.
