We prove a closed formula for leading Gopakumar- Vafa BPS invariants of local Calabi-Yau geometries given by the canonical line bundles of toric Fano surfaces. It shares some similar features with Goettsche-Yau-Zaslow formula: Connection…

We propose a variation of the classical Hilbert scheme of points - the double nested Hilbert scheme of points - which parametrizes flags of zero-dimensional subschemes whose nesting is dictated by a Young diagram. Over a smooth…

We consider the construction of refined Chern-Simons torus knot invariants by M. Aganagic and S. Shakirov from the DAHA viewpoint of I. Cherednik. We give a proof of Cherednik's conjecture on the stabilization of superpolynomials, and then…

For a smooth Deligne-Mumford stack X we describe a large number of inertial products on K(IX) and A*(IX) and corresponding inertial Chern characters. We do this by developing a theory of inertial pairs. Each inertial pair determines an…

For a quasi-projective scheme M which carries a perfect obstruction theory, we construct the virtual cobordism class of M. If M is projective, we prove that the corresponding Chern numbers of the virtual cobordism class are given by…

In 2008, Klemm-Pandharipande defined Gopakumar-Vafa type invariants of a Calabi-Yau 4-fold $X$ using Gromov-Witten theory. Recently, Cao-Maulik-Toda proposed a conjectural description of these invariants in terms of stable pair theory. When…

We introduce a refined version of the 3D index for 3-manifolds, building on the construction of the 3D $\mathcal{N}=2$ gauge theory $T[M]$ by Dimofte-Gaiotto-Gukov and Gang-Yonekura. The refined index is a superconformal index of $T[M]$…

Let $X$ be a smooth polarized algebraic surface over the compex number field. We discuss the invariants obtained from the moduli stacks of semistable sheaves of arbitrary ranks on $X$. For that purpose, we construct the virtual fundamental…

It has been proposed recently that topological A-model string amplitudes for toric Calabi-Yau 3-folds in non self-dual graviphoton background can be caluculated by a diagrammatic method that is called the ``refined topological vertex''. We…

We show the existence of semiorthogonal decompositions (SOD) of Pandharipande-Thomas (PT) stable pair moduli spaces on Calabi-Yau 3-folds with irreducible curve classes, assuming relevant moduli spaces are non-singular. The above result is…

A differential geometric version of noncommutative topological index theorem is worked out for covariant star products on noncommutative vector bundles. For start, a noncommutative manifold is considered as a product space X = Y * Z,…

Here we propose a different perspective of the deep factorisation in Kyprianou (2015) based on determining potentials. Indeed, we factorise the inverse of the MAP-exponent associated to a stable process via the Lamperti-Kiu transform. Here…

The regularity of refinable functions has been analysed in an extensive literature and is well-understood in two cases: 1) univariate 2) multivariate with an isotropic dilation matrix. The general (non-isotropic) case offered a great…
