Real normalized differentials and Arbarello's conjecture
arXiv:1112.6427
Abstract
Using meromorphic differentials with real periods, we prove Arbarello's conjecture: any compact complex cycle of dimension in the moduli space $\M_g$ of smooth genus algebraic curves must intersect the locus of curves having a Weierstrass point of order at most .
