Brauer groups of moduli of hyperelliptic curves via cohomological invariants

Abstract

We compute the Brauer group of the moduli stack of hyperelliptic curves Hg\mathcal{H}_g over any field of characteristic zero. In positive characteristic, we compute the part of the Brauer group whose order is prime to the characteristic of the base field.Comment: 28 pages, comments are very welcome
