Abstract

Let XX be a smooth variety or orbifold and let ZXZ \subseteq X be a complete intersection defined by a section of a vector bundle EXE \to X. Originally proposed by Givental, quantum Serre duality refers to a precise relationship between the Gromov--Witten invariants of ZZ and those of the dual vector bundle EE^\vee. In this paper we prove a quantum Serre duality statement for quasimap invariants. In shifting focus to quasimaps, we obtain a comparison which is simpler and which also holds for non-convex complete intersections. By combining our results with the wall-crossing formula developed by Zhou, we recover a quantum Serre duality statement in Gromov-Witten theory without assuming convexity.
