The l-loop banana amplitude from GKZ systems and relative Calabi-Yau periods

A Klemm, C Nega, R Safari - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2020 - Springer
A bstract We use the GKZ description of periods and certain classes of relative periods on
families of Barth-Nieto Calabi-Yau (l− 1)-folds in order to solve the l-loop banana amplitudes …

Topological String on elliptic CY 3-folds and the ring of Jacobi forms

M Huang, S Katz, A Klemm - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2015 - Springer
A bstract We give evidence that the all genus amplitudes of topological string theory on
compact elliptically fibered Calabi-Yau manifolds can be written in terms of meromorphic …

Vafa-Witten invariants for projective surfaces II: semistable case

Y Tanaka, RP Thomas - arXiv preprint arXiv:1702.08488, 2017 - arxiv.org
We propose a definition of Vafa-Witten invariants counting semistable Higgs pairs on a
polarised surface. We use virtual localisation applied to Mochizuki/Joyce-Song pairs. For …

Holomorphic anomaly equations and the Igusa cusp form conjecture

G Oberdieck, A Pixton - Inventiones mathematicae, 2018 - Springer
Let S be a K3 surface and let E be an elliptic curve. We solve the reduced Gromov–Witten
theory of the Calabi–Yau threefold S * ES× E for all curve classes which are primitive in the …

Pixton's formula and Abel-Jacobi theory on the Picard stack

Y Bae, D Holmes, R Pandharipande, J Schmitt… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2020 - arxiv.org
Let $ A=(a_1,\ldots, a_n) $ be a vector of integers with $ d=\sum_ {i= 1}^ n a_i $. By partial
resolution of the classical Abel-Jacobi map, we construct a universal twisted double …

Tropical refined curve counting from higher genera and lambda classes

P Bousseau - Inventiones mathematicae, 2019 - Springer
Block and Göttsche have defined aq-number refinement of counts of tropical curves in R^ 2
R 2. Under the change of variables q= e^ iu q= e iu, we show that the result is a generating …

Gromov-Witten/Hilbert versus AdS3/CFT2 Correspondence

W Lerche - arXiv preprint arXiv:2310.15237, 2023 - arxiv.org
We consider the boundary dual of AdS3xS3xK3 for NS5-flux Q5= 1, which is described by a
sigma model with target space given by the d-fold symmetric product of K3. Building on …

[HTML][HTML] Marked relative invariants and GW/PT correspondences

G Oberdieck - Advances in Mathematics, 2024 - Elsevier
We introduce marked relative Pandharipande-Thomas (PT) invariants for a pair (X, D) of a
smooth projective threefold and a smooth divisor. These invariants are defined by …

Holomorphic anomaly equations for the Hilbert scheme of points of a K3 surface

G Oberdieck - Geometry & Topology, 2024 - msp.org
We conjecture that the generating series of Gromov–Witten invariants of the Hilbert schemes
of n points on a K3 surface are quasi-Jacobi forms and satisfy a holomorphic anomaly …
