Pullback injectivity conjecture for forgetful charts of prestable curves

From papers

Let (g,n)(1,0)(g,n)\neq(1,0), and let d0d\geq 0 be fixed. For each m0m\geq 0, consider the forgetful morphism

Fm ⁣:Mg,n+mMg,n.F_m\colon \overline{\mathcal{M}}_{g,n+m}\to\mathfrak{M}_{g,n}.

It forgets the last mm markings without stabilizing the curve. Pullback injectivity conjecture. There exists m00m_0\geq 0 such that, for every mm0m\geq m_0, the pullback

Fm ⁣:CHd(Mg,n)CHd(Mg,n+m)F_m^*\colon \mathrm{CH}^d(\mathfrak{M}_{g,n})\to\mathrm{CH}^d(\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{g,n+m})

is injective.

The images of the forgetful charts form an atlas of Mg,n\mathfrak{M}_{g,n}, with complements whose codimension grows with mm. The conjecture asserts that, in each fixed degree, sufficiently large stable-curve charts detect all Chow classes; the paper gives motivation and verifies cases in genus zero, but the general statement remains open.
