The aim of this paper is to prove Golyshev's conjecture in the cases of Fano threefolds $V_{10}$ and $V_{14}$. This conjecture states modularity of D3 equations for smooth Fano threefolds with Picard group Z. More precisely, we find…
The Gromov-Witten theory of Deligne-Mumford stacks is a recent development, and hardly any computations have been done beyond 3-point genus 0 invariants. This paper provides explicit recursions which, together with some invariants computed…
We propose a general theory of the Open Gromov-Witten invariant on Calabi-Yau three-folds. In this paper we construct the Open Gromov-Witten potential. The evaluation of the potential on its critical points leads to numerical invariants.
For $X$ a smooth projective variety and $D=D_1+\ldots+D_n$ a simple normal crossings divisor, we establish a precise cycle-level correspondence between the genus zero local Gromov-Witten theory of the bundle $\oplus_{i=1}^n…
We compute the open Gromov-Witten disk invariants and the relative quantum cohomology of the Chiang Lagrangian $L_\triangle \subset \mathbb{C}P^3$. Since $L_\triangle$ is not fixed by any anti-symplectic involution, the invariants may…
Quantum knot invariants (like colored HOMFLY-PT or Kauffman polynomials) are a distinguished class of non-perturbative topological invariants. Any known way to construct them (via Chern-Simons theory or quantum R-matrix) starts with a…
In the paper, we study the wall-crossing phenomenon of reduced open Gromov-Witten invariants on K3 surfaces with rigid special Lagrangian boundary condition. As a corollary, we derived the multiple cover formula for the reduced open…
We show that (equivariant) K-theoretic 3-point Gromov-Witten invariants of genus zero on a Grassmann variety are equal to triple intersections computed in the ordinary (equivariant) K-theory of a two-step flag manifold, thus generalizing an…
In this paper, we propose a definition of genus one real Gromov-Witten invariants for certain symplectic manifolds with real a structure, including Calabi-Yau threefolds, and use equivariant localization to calculate certain genus one real…
I prove a formula expressing the descendent genus g Gromov-Witten invariants of a projective variety X in terms of genus 0 invariants of its symmetric product stack S^{g+1}(X). When X is a point, the latter are structure constants of the…
We study K-theoretic Gromov--Witten invariants of projective hypersurfaces using a virtual localization formula under finite group actions. In particular, it provides all K-theoretic Gromov--Witten invariants of the quintic threefold modulo…
The quantum cohomology algebra of the (full) flag manifold is a fundamental example in quantum cohomology theory, with connections to combinatorics, algebraic geometry, and integrable systems. Using a differential geometric approach, we…
A simple geometric way is suggested to derive the Ward identities in the Chern-Simons theory, also known as quantum $A$- and $C$-polynomials for knots. In quasi-classical limit it is closely related to the well publicized augmentation…
Gram determinants earned traction among knot theorists after E. Witten's presumption about the existence of a 3-manifold invariant connected to the Jones polynomial. Triggered by the creation of such an invariant by N. Reshetikhin and V.…
We consider four approaches to relative Gromov-Witten theory and Gromov-Witten theory of degenerations: Jun Li's original approach, Bumsig Kim's logarithmic expansions, Abramovich-Fantechi's orbifold expansions, and a logarithmic theory…
This is the third in a sequence of papers in which we construct a quantum version of the Kirwan map from the equivariant quantum cohomology of a smooth polarized complex projective variety with the action of a connected complex reductive…
We formulate the Asymptotic Expansion Conjecture for the Witten-Reshetikhin-Turaev quantum invariants of closed oriented three manifolds. For finite order mapping tori, we study these quantum invariants via the geometric gauge theory…
We define two new families of invariants for (3-manifold, graph) pairs which detect the unknot and are additive under connected sum of pairs and (-1/2)-additive under trivalent vertex sum of pairs. The first of these families is closely…
We prove that any three-point genus zero Gromov-Witten invariant on a type A Grassmannian is equal to a classical intersection number on a two-step flag variety. We also give symplectic and orthogonal analogues of this result; in these…
Given a vector bundle $F$ on a smooth Deligne-Mumford stack $\X$ and an invertible multiplicative characteristic class $\bc$, we define the orbifold Gromov-Witten invariants of $\X$ twisted by $F$ and $\bc$. We prove a "quantum Riemann-Roch…
