Following the highly-successful first AGNES Summer School on higher dimensional moduli in 2022, this school will focus on intersection theory on moduli spaces. The past few years have seen spectacular progress in explicit computations of the cohomology and rational/integral Chow rings of moduli spaces of curves and related objects. This school will introduce graduate students to a range of techniques in this active area through four mini-courses. A key component of the school will be afternoon working sessions, where participants will work together in groups on problems, ranging from exercises to open-ended examples and research problems, relating to the topics of the lectures.

This summer school is designed for graduate students who have completed a yearlong course covering the foundations of algebraic geometry (e.g., Hartshorne's Algebraic Geometry) and are working in the field.

The minicourses will be given by Andrea di Lorenzo, Eric Larson, Hannah Larson, and Angelo Vistoli.
