We compare the Chen-Ruan cohomology ring of the weighted projective spaces $\IP(1,3,4,4)$ and $\IP(1,...,1,n)$ with the cohomology ring of their crepant resolutions. In both cases, we prove that the Chen-Ruan cohomology ring is isomorphic…
We give an expository account of a conjecture, developed by Coates--Corti--Iritani--Tseng and Ruan, which relates the quantum cohomology of a Gorenstein orbifold X to the quantum cohomology of a crepant resolution Y of X. We explore some…
In this paper, we prove that Ruan's Cohomological Crepant Resolution Conjecture holds for the Hilbert-Chow morphisms. There are two main ideas in the proof. The first one is to use the representation theoretic approach proposed in [QW]…
This is an expository article on the recent studies of Ruan's crepant resolution/flop conjecture and its possible relations to the K-theory integral structure in quantum cohomology.
Chen and Ruan [6] defined a very interesting cohomology theory for orbifolds, which is now called Chen-Ruan cohomology. The primary objective of this paper is to compute the Chen-Ruan cohomology rings of the weighted projective spaces, a…
We study Ruan's \textit{cohomological crepant resolution conjecture} for orbifolds with transversal ADE singularities. In the $A_n$-case we compute both the Chen-Ruan cohomology ring $H^*_{\rm CR}([Y])$ and the quantum corrected cohomology…
Motivated by physics, we propose two conjectures regarding the cohomology ring of the crepant resolutions of orbifolds and cohomological invariants of K-equivalent manifolds.
We give formulae for the Chen-Ruan orbifold cohomology for the orbifolds given by a Bianchi group acting on complex hyperbolic 3-space. The Bianchi groups are the arithmetic groups PSL\_2(A), where A is the ring of integers in an imaginary…
We study Ruan's "cohomological crepant resolution conjecture" (see math.AG/0108195) for orbifolds with transversal ADE singularities. Let [Y] be such an orbifold, Y its coarse moduli space and Z the crepant resolution of Y. Following Ruan…
Let X be an orbifold with crepant resolution Y. The Crepant Resolution Conjectures of Ruan and Bryan-Graber assert, roughly speaking, that the quantum cohomology of X becomes isomorphic to the quantum cohomology of Y after analytic…
These notes accompany a lecture about the topology of symplectic (and other) quotients. The aim is two-fold: first to advertise the ease of computation in the symplectic category; and second to give an account of some new computations for…
We compute quantum cohomology ring of elliptic $\mathbb{P}^1$ orbifolds via orbi-curve counting. The main technique is the classification theorem which relates holomorphic orbi-curves with certain orbifold coverings. The countings of…
We prove the Hilbert-Chow crepant resolution conjecture in the exceptional curve classes for all projective surfaces and all genera. In particular, this confirms Ruan's cohomological Hilbert-Chow crepant resolution conjecture. The proof…
We study the relationship between Gromov-Witten invariants of local $\mathbb{P}^4$ and Gromov-witten invariants of $[\mathbb{C}^5/\mathbb{Z}_5]$ for all genera. We state the crepant resolution conjecture in explicit form and prove this…
Let X be a compact connected Riemann surface of genus at least two. We compute the Chen--Ruan cohomology ring of the moduli space of stable PSL(2, C)--bundles of nontrivial second Stiefel--Whitney class over X.
We prove an all genera version of the Crepant Resolution Conjecture of Ruan and Bryan-Graber for type A surface singularities. We are based on a method that explicitly computes Hurwitz-Hodge integrals described in an earlier paper and some…
In this paper we analyze four examples of birational transformations between local Calabi-Yau 3-folds: two crepant resolutions, a crepant partial resolution, and a flop. We study the effect of these transformations on genus-zero…
We compute open GW invariants for $\mathcal{K}_{\mathbb{P}^1}\oplus\mathcal{O}_{\mathbb{P}^1}$, open orbifold GW invariants for $[\C^3/\Z_2]$, formulate an open crepant resolution conjecture and verify it for this pair. We show that open…
In this paper we analyze six examples of birational transformations between toric orbifolds: three crepant resolutions, two crepant partial resolutions, and a flop. We study the effect of these transformations on genus-zero Gromov-Witten…
We compute the cohomology ring of a generalised type of configuration space of points in $\mathbb{R}^r$. This configuration space is indexed by a graph. In the case the graph is complete the result is known and it is due to Arnold and…
