There is a result on the dimension bound for $\bar{M_{g,n}}/S_n$, (the moduli space for Riemann surfaces of genus $g$ with $n$ marked points) that is
$H_{i}(\bar{M_{g,n}}/S_n)=0$, for $i\ge 6g-7+2n$. This result (see Costello: Gromov-Witten potential associated to a TCFT) can be derived from the virtual cohomology dimension of the mapping class group (see J. L. Harer, The virtual cohomological dimension of the mapping class group of an orientable surface, Invent. Math). I am wondering if there is such a theorem for surfaces with boundary. For example, is there any similar result for mapping class groups of orientable surfaces with boundary(and marked points if necessary)? Then can we get a result similar to the above dimension bound for moduli spaces of Riemann surfaces with boundary and marked points? I just want to know if such a result already exists.
