Counting bare curves

T Ekholm, V Shende - arXiv preprint arXiv:2406.00890, 2024 - arxiv.org
We construct a class of perturbations of the Cauchy-Riemann equation for maps from curves
to a Calabi-Yau threefold, allowing Maslov zero Lagrangian boundary conditions. Our …

Unramified Gromov-Witten and Gopakumar-Vafa invariants

D Nesterov - arXiv preprint arXiv:2405.18398, 2024 - arxiv.org
Kim, Kresch and Oh defined unramified Gromov-Witten invariants. For a threefold,
Pandharipande conjectured that they are equal to Gopakumar-Vafa invariants (BPS …

Gromov–Witten and quasimap invariants of toric varieties–a geometric perspective

A Cobos Rabano - 2024 - etheses.whiterose.ac.uk
Given F a coherent sheaf on a Noetherian integral algebraic stack P, we give two
constructions of stacks P'equipped with birational morphisms p from P'to P such that p* F is …
