Invariants of real symplectic four-manifolds out of reducible and cuspidal curves

Jean-Yves Welschinger (2006)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

We construct invariants under deformation of real symplectic four-manifolds. These invariants are obtained by counting three different kinds of real rational J -holomorphic curves which realize a given homology class and pass through a given real configuration of (the appropriate number of) points. These curves are cuspidal curves, reducible curves and curves with a prescribed tangent line at some real point of the configuration. They are counted with respect to some sign defined by the parity of...

Labeled floor diagrams for plane curves

Sergey Fomin, Grigory Mikhalkin (2010)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Floor diagrams are a class of weighted oriented graphs introduced by E. Brugallé and the second author. Tropical geometry arguments lead to combinatorial descriptions of (ordinary and relative) Gromov–Witten invariants of projective spaces in terms of floor diagrams and their generalizations. In a number of cases, these descriptions can be used to obtain explicit (direct or recursive) formulas for the corresponding enumerative invariants. In particular, we use this approach to enumerate rational...

Landau-Ginzburg models in real mirror symmetry

Johannes Walcher (2011)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

In recent years, mirror symmetry for open strings has exhibited some new connections between symplectic and enumerative geometry (A-model) and complex algebraic geometry (B-model) that in a sense lie between classical and homological mirror symmetry. I review the rôle played in this story by matrix factorizations and the Calabi-Yau/Landau-Ginzburg correspondence.

Parabolic bundles, products of conjugacy classes, and Gromov-Witten invariants

Constantin Teleman, Christopher Woodward (2003)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

The set of conjugacy classes appearing in a product of conjugacy classes in a compact, 1 -connected Lie group K can be identified with a convex polytope in the Weyl alcove. In this paper we identify linear inequalities defining this polytope. Each inequality corresponds to a non-vanishing Gromov-Witten invariant for a generalized flag variety G / P , where G is the complexification of K and P is a maximal parabolic subgroup. This generalizes the results for S U ( n ) of Agnihotri and the second author and Belkale on...

Quantum Cohomology and Crepant Resolutions: A Conjecture

Tom Coates, Yongbin Ruan (2013)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We give an expository account of a conjecture, developed by Coates–Iritani–Tseng and Ruan, which relates the quantum cohomology of a Gorenstein orbifold 𝒳 to the quantum cohomology of a crepant resolution Y of 𝒳 . We explore some consequences of this conjecture, showing that it implies versions of both the Cohomological Crepant Resolution Conjecture and of the Crepant Resolution Conjectures of Ruan and Bryan–Graber. We also give a ‘quantized’ version of the conjecture, which determines higher-genus...

Quantum Cohomology and Periods

Hiroshi Iritani (2011)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

In a previous paper, the author introduced an integral structure in quantum cohomology defined by the K -theory and the Gamma class and showed that it is compatible with mirror symmetry for toric orbifolds. Applying the quantum Lefschetz principle to the previous results, we find an explicit relationship between solutions to the quantum differential equation of toric complete intersections and the periods (or oscillatory integrals) of their mirrors. We describe in detail the mirror isomorphism of...

Quantum Singularity Theory for A ( r - 1 ) and r -Spin Theory

Huijun Fan, Tyler Jarvis, Yongbin Ruan (2011)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We give a review of our construction of a cohomological field theory for quasi-homogeneous singularities and the r -spin theory of Jarvis-Kimura-Vaintrob. We further prove that for a singularity W of type A our construction of the stack of W -curves is canonically isomorphic to the stack of r -spin curves described by Abramovich and Jarvis. We further prove that our theory satisfies all the Jarvis-Kimura-Vaintrob axioms for an r -spin virtual class. Therefore, the Faber-Shadrin-Zvonkine proof of the...

Sur la première classe de Stiefel-Whitney de l’espace des applications stables réelles vers l’espace projectif

Nicolas Puignau (2010)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

L’espace de module des applications stables vers l’espace projectif possède naturellement une structure réelle dont la partie réelle est une variété projective normale. Cette dernière est un espace de module pour les courbes spatiales rationnelles réelles avec des points marqués réels. Puisque le lieu singulier est de codimension au moins deux, une première classe de Stiefel-Whitney est bien définie. Dans cet article nous déterminons un représentant pour la première classe de Stiefel-Whitney dans...

Tautological relations and the r -spin Witten conjecture

Carel Faber, Sergey Shadrin, Dimitri Zvonkine (2010)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

In [11], A. Givental introduced a group action on the space of Gromov–Witten potentials and proved its transitivity on the semi-simple potentials. In [24, 25], Y.-P. Lee showed, modulo certain results announced by C. Teleman, that this action respects the tautological relations in the cohomology ring of the moduli space ℳ ¯ g , n of stable pointed curves. Here we give a simpler proof of this result. In particular, it implies that in any semi-simple Gromov–Witten theory where arbitrary correlators can be...
