In particular, Getzler's relation is shown to be a rational equivalence. The recursion for the elliptic Gromov-Witten invariants of P^2 predicted by Eguchi, Hori, and Xiong from the Virasoro conjecture is proven via Getzler's equation and the WDVV-equations.Latex2e 14 pagesAlgebraic GeometryA geometric construction of Getzler's relationtext
