Complete Sets of Relations in the Cohomology Rings of Moduli Spaces of Holomorphic Bundles and Parabolic Bundles Over a Riemann Surface

The cohomology ring of the moduli space of stable holomorphicvector bundles of rank n and degree d over a Riemann surfaceof genus g > 1 has a standard set of generators when n andd are coprime. When n = 2 the relations between these generatorsare well understood, and in particular a conjecture of Mumford,that a certain set of relations is a complete set, is knownto be true. In this article generalisations are given of Mumford'srelations to the cases when n > 2 and also when the bundlesare parabolic bundles, and these are shown to form completesets of relations. 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification 14H60.
