The projectivity of the moduli space of stable curves. I: Preliminaries on "det" and "Div".
We state a certain lifting conjecture and prove it in the case of a torus. From this result we are able to construct a connected dense subset of the space of intrinsic simple topological measures on the torus, consisting of push forwards of compactly supported generalized point-measures on the universal covering space. Combining this result with an observation of Johansen and Rustad, we conclude that the space of simple topological measures on a torus is connected.
Recently Entov and Polterovich asked if the Grubb measure was the only symplectic topological measure on the torus. Much to our surprise we discovered a whole new class of intrinsic simple topological measures on the torus, many of which were symplectic.
