Abstract

Consider a compact symplectic sub-orbifold groupoid S\sf S of a compact symplectic orbifold groupoid (X,ω)(\mathsf X,\omega). Let Xa\mathsf X_{\mathfrak a} be the weight-a\mathfrak a blowup of X\sf X along S\sf S, and Da=PNa\mathsf D_{\mathfrak a}=\mathsf{PN}_{\mathfrak a} be the exceptional divisor, where N\sf N is the normal bundle of S\sf S in X\sf X. In this paper we show that the absolute orbifold Gromov--Witten theory of Xa\mathsf X_{\mathfrak a} can be effectively and uniquely reconstructed from the absolute orbifold Gromov--Witten theories of X\sf X, S\sf S and Da\mathsf D_{\mathfrak a}, the natural restriction homomorphism HCR(X)HCR(S)H^*_{\text{CR}}({\sf X})\rightarrow H^*_{\text{CR}}({\sf S}) and the first Chern class of the tautological line bundle over Da\mathsf D_{\mathfrak a}. To achieve this we first prove similar results for the relative orbifold Gromov--Witten theories of (XaDa)(\mathsf X_{\mathfrak a}|\mathsf D_{\mathfrak a}) and (NaDa)(\mathsf N_{\mathfrak a}|\mathsf D_{\mathfrak a}). As applications of these results, we prove an orbifold version of a conjecture of Maulik--Pandharipande on the Gromov--Witten theory of blowups along complete intersections, a conjecture on the Gromov--Witten theory of root constructions and a conjecture on Leray--Hirsch result for orbifold Gromov--Witten theory of Tseng--You.
