Jan 29, 2018 at 6:30 comment added Dan Petersen Hi Paolo, maybe. It seems plausible that the relationship between vcd and tautological classes passes through the conjectures of Looijenga on the # of affine open subsets needed to cover the moduli spaces of curves. Namely: (1) knowing what is the top degree of the tautological ring gives an upper bound on the dimension of a compact subvariety of the moduli space, (2) knowing the minimum number of open affines needed in a cover gives an upper bound for both the vcd and the largest dimension of a compact subvariety...
