In this note, we revisit the $\Theta$-invariant as defined by R. Bott and the first author. The $\Theta$-invariant is an invariant of rational homology 3-spheres with acyclic orthogonal local systems, which is a generalization of the 2-loop…
Using virtual localization in Witt sheaf cohomology, we show that the generating series of quadratic Donaldson-Thomas invariants of $(\mathbb{P}^1)^3$, valued in the Witt ring of $\mathbb{R}$, $W(\mathbb{R})\cong \mathbb{Z}$, is equal to…
We propose a logarithmic enhancement of the Gromov-Witten/Donaldson-Thomas correspondence, with descendants, and study its behavior under simple normal crossings degenerations. The formulation of the logarithmic correspondence requires a…
We prove the equivariant Gromov-Witten theory of a nonsingular toric 3-fold X with primary insertions is equivalent to the equivariant Donaldson-Thomas theory of X. As a corollary, the topological vertex calculations by Agangic, Klemm,…
For a nonsingular projective 3-fold $X$, we define integer invariants virtually enumerating pairs $(C,D)$ where $C\subset X$ is an embedded curve and $D\subset C$ is a divisor. A virtual class is constructed on the associated moduli space…
We prove a wall crossing formula of Donaldson-Thomas type invariants without Chern-Simons functionals.
A quiver is an oriented graph. Quiver mutation is an elementary operation on quivers. It appeared in physics in Seiberg duality in the nineties and in mathematics in the definition of cluster algebras by Fomin-Zelevinsky in 2002. We show,…
Let $(X, D)$ be a log variety with an effective holomorphic torus action, and $\Theta$ be a closed positive $(1,1)$-current. For any smooth positive function $g$ defined on the moment polytope of the torus action, we study the…
We define and study refined Gopakumar-Vafa invariants of contractible curves in complex algebraic 3-folds, alongside the cohomological Donaldson--Thomas theory of finite-dimensional Jacobi algebras. These Gopakumar-Vafa invariants can be…
We give an existence result on (H,A)-stable sheaves on a K3 or abelian surface X with primitive triple of invariants (rank,first Chern class,Euler characteristics) in the integral cohomology lattice. Such a result yields the existence of…
Given a complex 4-fold $X$ with an (Calabi-Yau 3-fold) anti-canonical divisor $Y$, we study relative Donaldson-Thomas invariants for this pair, which are elements in the Donaldson-Thomas cohomologies of $Y$. We also discuss gluing formulas…
Let $X$ be an Abelian threefold. We prove a formula, conjectured by the first author, expressing the Euler characteristic of the generalized Kummer schemes $K^nX$ of $X$ in terms of the number of plane partitions. This computes the…
Recently a set of $q$-series invariants, labelled by $\operatorname{Spin}^c$ structures, for weakly negative definite plumbed $3$-manifolds called the $\widehat{Z}_a$ invariants were discovered by Gukov, Pei, Putrov and Vafa. The leading…
As recently pointed out by Li and Xu, the definition of K-stability, and the author's proof of K-stability for cscK manifolds without holomorphic vector fields, need to be altered slightly: the Donaldson-Futaki invariant is positive for all…
The higher derivative field theories are notorious for the stability problems both at classical and quantum level. Classical instability is connected with unboundedness of the canonical energy, while the unbounded energy spectrum leads to…
Donaldson-Thomas (DT) invariants of a quiver with potential can be expressed in terms of simpler attractor DT invariants by a universal formula. The coefficients in this formula are calculated combinatorially using attractor flow trees. In…
For a unitary representation of the fundamental group of a compact smooth manifold, Atiyah, Patodi, Singer defined the so called alpha-invariant of the representation using Chern-Simons invariants. In this article using traces on…
Based on the Cayley, Grothendieck, Knudsen Mumford theory of determinants we extend the CM polarization to the Hilbert scheme. We identify the weight of this refined line bundle with the generalized Futaki invariant of Donaldson. We are…
On an abelian variety $A$, sheaf convolution gives a Tannakian formalism for perverse sheaves. Let $X$ be an irreducible algebraic variety with generic point $\eta$. Let $K$ be a family of perverse sheaves (more precisely, a relative…
Extending work of Klyachko, Perling and Kool we develop a combinatorial description of torsion free toric sheaves in any dimension on smooth toric DM stacks. We investigate their basic properties and under certain conditions recover some…
