We construct invariants for any closed semipositive symplectic manifold which count rational curves satisfying tangency constraints to a local divisor. More generally, we introduce invariants involving multibranched local tangency…

We analyze B-type D-branes on noncompact toric Calabi--Yau spaces. A general program is presented to find a set of tilting line bundles that yields the associated quiver and its relations. In many cases, this set remains fixed as one moves…

We prove that the Eynard-Orantin symplectic invariants of the curve xy-y^2=1 are the orbifold Euler characteristics of the moduli spaces of genus g curves. We do this by associating to the Eynard-Orantin invariants of xy-y^2=1 a problem of…

We provide a wall-crossing framework for operational enumerative invariants of equivariant 3-Calabi--Yau categories arising from virtual cycles. The strategy follows ideas of Joyce's ``universal'' wall-crossing framework arXiv:2111.04694,…

We describe a correspondence between the virtual number of torsion free sheaves locally free in codimension 3 on a Calabi-Yau 3-fold and the Gromov-Witten invariants counting rational curves in a family of orbifold blowups of the weighted…

Donaldson-Thomas theory on a Calabi-Yau can be described in terms of a certain six-dimensional cohomological gauge theory. We introduce a certain class of defects in this gauge theory which generalize surface defects in four dimensions.…

We develop some methods to construct normal crossing varieties whose dual complexes are two-dimensional, which are smoothable to Calabi--Yau threefolds. We calculate topological invariants of smoothed Calabi--Yau threefolds and show that…

In this paper, we prove the categorical wall-crossing formula for certain quivers containing the three loop quiver, which we call DT/PT quivers. These quivers appear as Ext-quivers for the wall-crossing of DT/PT moduli spaces on Calabi-Yau…

We study the reduced Donaldson-Thomas theory of abelian threefolds using Bridgeland stability conditions. The main result is the invariance of the reduced Donaldson-Thomas invariants under all derived autoequivalences, up to explicitly…

We describe the possible noncommutative deformations of complex projective three-space by exhibiting the Calabi--Yau algebras that serve as their homogeneous coordinate rings. We prove that the space parametrizing such deformations has…

In this paper we set up the family Seiberg-Witten theory. It can be applied to the counting of nodal pseudo-holomorphic curves in a symplectic 4-manifold (especially a Kahler surface). A new feature in this theory is that the chamber…

We show a version of the DT/PT correspondence relating local curve counting invariants, encoding the contribution of a fixed smooth curve in a Calabi-Yau threefold. We exploit a local study of the Hilbert-Chow morphism about the cycle of a…

Let X be a Calabi-Yau 3-fold, T=D^b(coh(X)) the derived category of coherent sheaves on X, and Stab(T) the complex manifold of Bridgeland stability conditions Z on T. It is conjectured that one can define rational numbers J^a(Z) for Z in…

We show that there is a natural perverse sheaf on the moduli space of semistable sheaves on a smooth projective Calabi-Yau 3-fold which is locally the perverse sheaf of vanishing cycles for a local Chern-Simons functional. This gives us a…
