Title

The Chern classes of the Verlinde bundles

Abstract

The Verlinde bundles over the moduli space M_g are obtained by considering relative moduli spaces of semistable bundles over smooth curves and associated theta divisors. Their ranks are given by the well-studied Verlinde numbers. I will discuss a formula for the total Chern character of the Verlinde bundles, as well as extensions over the moduli space of stable curves \overline M_g. This is based on joint work with Alina Marian, Rahul Pandharipande, Aaron Pixton and Dimitri Zvonkine.
