Abstract

We describe the Chow ring with rational coefficients of \(\overline{M}_{0,1}(\mathbb{P}^n,d)\) as the subring of invariants of a ring \(B^*(\overline{M}_{0,1}(\mathbb{P}^n,d);\mathbb{Q})\), relative to the action of the group of symmetries Sd. We compute \(B^*(\overline{M}_{0,1}(\mathbb{P}^n,d);\mathbb{Q})\) by following a sequence of intermediate spaces for \(\overline{M}_{0,1}(\mathbb{P}^n,d)\).
