We propose two conjectural relationships between the equivariant Gromov-Witten invariants of the resolved conifold under diagonal and anti-diagonal actions and the Gromov-Witten invariants of $\mathbb{P}^1$, and verify their validity in…
We compare the Chen-Ruan cohomology ring of the weighted projective spaces $\IP(1,3,4,4)$ and $\IP(1,...,1,n)$ with the cohomology ring of their crepant resolutions. In both cases, we prove that the Chen-Ruan cohomology ring is isomorphic…
Motivated by physics, we propose two conjectures regarding the cohomology ring of the crepant resolutions of orbifolds and cohomological invariants of K-equivalent manifolds.
We introduce the notion of a ``non-commutative crepant'' resolution of a singularity and show that it exists in certain cases. We also give some evidence for an extension of a conjecture by Bondal and Orlov, stating that different crepant…
Let Z_3 act on C^2 by non-trivial opposite characters. Let X =[C^2/Z_3] be the orbifold quotient, and let Y be the unique crepant resolution. We show the equivariant genus 0 Gromov-Witten potentials of X and Y are equal after a change of…
We investigate the relationship between the Lagrangian Floer superpotentials for a toric orbifold and its toric crepant resolutions. More specifically, we study an open string version of the crepant resolution conjecture (CRC) which states…
Let G be a finite subgroup of SL(n,C), then the quotient C^n/G has a Gorenstein canonical singularity. Bridgeland-King-Reid proved that the G-Hilbert scheme Hilb^G(C^3) gives a crepant resolution of the quotient C^3/G for any finite…
We prove a quantum version of Kalkman's wall-crossing formula comparing Gromov-Witten invariants on geometric invariant theory (git) quotients related by a change in polarization. The wall-crossing terms are gauged Gromov-Witten invariants…
We use Pixton's relations to prove a reconstruction theorem for genus 2 Gromov-Witten invariants in the style of Kontsevich-Manin (genus 0) and Getzler (genus 1). We also calculate genus 2 (descendant) Gromov-Witten invariants of…
Using the associativity relations of the topological Sigma Models with target spaces, $CP^3, CP^4$ and $Gr(2,4)$ , we derive recursion relations of their correlation and evaluate them up to certain order in the expansion over the…
We state and prove a topological recursion relation that expresses any genus-g Gromov-Witten invariant of a projective manifold with at least a (3g-1)-st power of a cotangent line class in terms of invariants with fewer cotangent line…
These brief notes record our puzzles and findings surrounding Givental's recent conjecture which expresses higher genus Gromov-Witten invariants in terms of the genus-0 data. We limit our considerations to the case of a projective line,…
This is the fifth in a series of papers where we prove a conjecture of Deser and Schwimmer regarding the algebraic structure of ``global conformal invariants''; these are defined to be conformally invariant integrals of geometric scalars.…
In this article, we determine the explicit toric variety structure of $\hl^{A_1(n)}(\CZ^n)$ for $n=4,5$, where $A_1(n)$ is the special diagonal group of all order 2 elements. Through the toric data of $\hl^{A_1(n)}(\CZ^n)$, we obtain…
For any given finite subgroup $G\subset SL_3(\mathbb{C})$, we show that every projective crepant resolution $X$ of the quotient variety $\mathbb{C}^3/G$ is isomorphic to the moduli space of $\theta$-stable $G$-constellations for a generic…
We study Ruan's "cohomological crepant resolution conjecture" (see math.AG/0108195) for orbifolds with transversal ADE singularities. Let [Y] be such an orbifold, Y its coarse moduli space and Z the crepant resolution of Y. Following Ruan…
In this paper, we study some vanishing identities for Gromov-Witten invariants conjectured by K. Liu and H. Xu. We will prove these conjectures in the case that the summation range is large compare to genus. In fact, in such cases, we can…
We prove an explicit form of the Crepant Transformation Conjecture for Grassmannian flops. Our approach uses abelianization to first relate the restrictions of the Lagrangian cones to degree-2 classes, and then deduces the general result…
For any toric Calabi-Yau 3-orbifold with transverse A-singularities, we prove Ruan's crepant resolution conjecture and the Gromov-Witten/Donaldson-Thomas correspondence.
We give a graph-sum algorithm that expresses any genus-$g$ Gromov-Witten invariant of the symmetric product orbifold $\mathrm{Sym}^d\mathbb{P}^r:=[(\mathbb{P}^r)^d/S_d]$ in terms of "Hurwitz-Hodge integrals" -- integrals over (compactified)…
