A motivic integral identity for $(-1)$-shifted symplectic stacks

Algebraic Geometry 2026-01-14 v3

Abstract

We prove a motivic integral identity relating the motivic Behrend function of a (1)(-1)-shifted symplectic stack to that of its stack of graded points. This generalizes analogous identities for moduli stacks of objects in 33-Calabi\unicodex2013\unicode{x2013}Yau abelian categories obtained by Kontsevich\unicodex2013\unicode{x2013}Soibelman and Joyce\unicodex2013\unicode{x2013}Song, which are crucial in proving wall-crossing formulae for Donaldson\unicodex2013\unicode{x2013}Thomas invariants. We expect our identity to be useful in extending motivic Donaldson\unicodex2013\unicode{x2013}Thomas theory to general (1)(-1)-shifted symplectic stacks.
