Refined floor diagrams relative to a conic and Caporaso-Harris type formula

Algebraic Geometry 2025-09-23 v2

Abstract

We prove a qq-refined correspondence theorem between higher genus relative Gromov-Witten invariants with a Lambda class λgg\lambda_{g-g'} insertion in the blow-up of P2\mathbb{P}^2 at kk points on a conic and the refined counts of genus gg' floor diagrams relative to a conic, after the change of variables q=eiuq=e^{iu}. We provide a Caporaso-Harris type recursive formula for the refined counts of higher genus floor diagrams. As an application of the correspondence theorem, we propose a higher genus version of the BPS polynomials of del Pezzo surfaces of degree 3\geq3 and Hirzebruch surfaces, which generalize the higher genus Block-G\"ottsche polynomials.
