Euler characteristics of moduli spaces of curves [PDF]
, 2011 Let Mgn be the moduli space of n-pointed Riemann surfaces of genus g. Denote by Mgn the Deligne-Mumford compactification of Mgn. In the present paper, we calculate the orbifold and the ordinary Euler characteristic of Mgn for any g and n such that n >
