We analyze the relationship between two compactifications of the moduli space of maps from curves to a Grassmannian: the Kontsevich moduli space of stable maps and the Marian--Oprea--Pandharipande moduli space of stable quotients. We…
In this paper we exploit the geometric approach to the virtual fundamental class, due to Fukaya-Ono and Li-Tian, to compare the virtual fundamental classes of stable maps to a symplectic manifold and a symplectic submanifold whenever all…
We derive a formula for the virtual class of the moduli space of rubber maps to $[\mathbb{P}^1/G]$ pushed forward to the moduli space of stable maps to $BG$. As an application, we show that the Gromov-Witten theory of $[\mathbb{P}^1/G]$…
We construct new "virtually smooth" modular compactifications of spaces of maps from nonsingular curves to smooth projective toric varieties. They generalize Givental's compactifications, when the complex structure of the curve is allowed…
Moduli spaces of stable maps to a smooth projective variety typically have several components. We express the virtual class of the moduli space of genus one stable maps to a smooth projective variety as a sum of virtual classes of the…
We propose a generalization of Gysin maps for DM-type morphisms of stacks $F\to G$ that admit a perfect relative obstruction theory $E_{F/G}^{\bullet}$, which we call a "virtual pull-back". We prove functoriality properties of virtual…
We show that moduli spaces of stable maps admits virtual orbifold structure. The symplectic version of virtual localization formula is obtained.
We approach Gathmann's virtual pushforward property from the perspective of bivariant intersection theory, extend a virtual pushforward result of Manolache, and use our extension to deduce a result of Gathmann relating relative and rubber…
For any smooth projective variety with a C* action, we reduce the problem of computing its Gromov-Witten invariants to the similar problem for its fixed locus. Starting from the stacky version of variation of GIT for our variety, we…
We show that a holomorphic two-form $\theta$ on a smooth algebraic variety X localizes the virtual fundamental class of the moduli of stable maps $\mgn(X,\beta)$ to the locus where $\theta$ degenerates; it then enables us to define the…
Let $T$ be a split torus acting on an algebraic scheme $X$ with fixed locus $Z$. Edidin and Graham showed that on localized $T$-equivariant Chow groups, (a) push-forward $i_*$ along $i : Z \to X$ is an isomorphism, and (b) when $X$ is…
For an arbitrary smooth hypersurface X in a projective space, we construct its LG moduli of quasimaps with P fields. Apply Kiem-Li's cosection localization we obtain a virtual fundamental class. We show the class coincides, up to sign, with…
Let $X,Y$ be algebraic varieties defined over $\Bbb R$. Assume $Y$ is smooth and $X$ is Gorenstein. Suppose $\varphi:X\to Y$ is a flat $\Bbb R$-morphism such that all the fibers have rational singularities. We show that the pushforward of…
We introduce a method of constructing the virtual cycle of any scheme associated with a tangent-obstruction complex. We apply this method to constructing the virtual moduli cycle of the moduli of stable maps from n-pointed genus g curves to…
The moduli space of stable quotients introduced by Marian-Oprea-Pandharipande provides a natural compactification of the space of morphisms from nonsingular curves to a nonsingular projective variety and carries a natural virtual class. We…
The moduli space of stable relative maps to the projective line combines features of stable maps and admissible covers. We prove all standard Gromov-Witten classes on these moduli spaces of stable relative maps have tautological…
We construct a moduli space of stable pairs over a smooth projective variety, parametrizing morphisms from a fixed coherent sheaf to a varying sheaf of fixed topological type, subject to a stability condition. This generalizes the notion…
Let X be a smooth projective variety with the action of the n dimensional torus. The article describes the moduli space of torus equivariant morphisms from stable toric varieties into X as the inverse limit of the GIT quotients of X and…
A moduli space of stable maps to the fibers of a fiber bundle is constructed. The new moduli space is a family version of the classical moduli space of stable maps to a non-singular complex projective variety. The virtual cycle for this…
We prove a localization formula for virtual fundamental classes in the context of torus equivariant perfect obstruction theories. As an application, the higher genus Gromov-Witten invariants of projective space are expressed as graph sums…
