Strata of meromorphic differentials with prescribed zeroes and poles
-- Samuel Grushevsky, February 26, 2016

<p>

We describe explicitly the closure, over stable curves, of the locus of
meromorphic differentials with prescribed multiplicities of zeroes and poles on
Riemann surfaces. This gives a compact space for study in Teichmueller
dynamics and also has applications to cycle computations on the moduli space
of curves.
