Refined Topological Strings on Local $\mathbb{P}^2$

High Energy Physics - Theory 2016-11-08 v2

Abstract

We calculate the refined topological string partition function of the Calabi-Yau threefold which is the total space of the canonical bundle on P2\mathbb{P}^2 (the local P2\mathbb{P}^2). The refined topological vertex formalism can not be directly applied to local P2\mathbb{P}^2 therefore we use the properties of the refined Hopf link to define a new two legged vertex which together with the refined vertex gives the partition function of the local P2\mathbb{P}^2.
