Abstract

Given an algebraic surface XX, the Hilbert scheme X[n]X^{[n]} of nn-points on XX admits a contraction morphism to the nn-fold symmetric product X(n)X^{(n)} with the extremal ray generated by a class βn\beta_n of a rational curve. We determine the two point extremal GW-invariants of X[n]X^{[n]} with respect to the class dβnd\beta_n for a simply-connected projective surface XX and the quantum first Chern class operator of the tautological bundle on X[n]X^{[n]}. The methods used are vertex algebraic description of H(X[n])H^*(X^{[n]}), the localization technique applied to X=P2X=\mathbb P^2, and a generalization of the reduction theorem of Kiem-J. Li to the case of meromorphic 2-forms.
