Virasoro constraints for orbifold Gromov-Witten theory are described. These constraints are applied to the degree zreo, genus zero orbifold Gromov-Witten potentials of the weighted projective stacks $\mathbb{P}(1,N)$, $\mathbb{P}(1,1,N)$…
In algebraic geometry, Gromov--Witten invariants are enumerative invariants that count the number of complex curves in a smooth projective variety satisfying some incidence conditions. In 2001, A. Givental and Y.P. Lee defined new…
It was pointed out by Eliashberg in his ICM 2006 plenary talk that the integrable systems of rational Gromov-Witten theory very naturally appear in the rich algebraic formalism of symplectic field theory (SFT). Carefully generalizing the…
We study the enumerative significance of the s-pointed genus zero Gromov-Witten invariant on a homogeneous space X. For that, we give an interpretation in terms of rational curves on X.
We describe the structure of mirror formulas for genus 0 Gromov-Witten invariants of projective complete intersections with any number of marked points and provide an explicit algorithm for obtaining the relevant structure coefficients. The…
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…
We introduce a categorical analogue of Saito's notion of primitive forms. Let $W$ denote the potential $\frac{1}{n+1} x^{n+1}$. For the category $MF(W)$ of matrix factorizations of $W$ we prove that there exists a unique, up to non-zero…
This article is an elaboration of a talk given at an international conference on Operator Theory, Quantum Probability, and Noncommutative Geometry held during December~20--23, 2004, at the Indian Statistical Institute, Kolkata. The lecture…
Given $\mathfrak{F}$ a coherent sheaf on a Noetherian integral algebraic stack $\mathfrak{P}$, we give two constructions of stacks $\widetilde{\mathfrak{P}}$, equipped with birational morphisms $p:\widetilde{\mathfrak{P}}\to \mathfrak{P}$…
We compute the quantum cohomology relative to a Lagrangian submanifold in some complete intersections. For quadric hypersurfaces, we also give a full computation of the genus zero open Gromov-Witten invariants.
The purpose of this paper is to study Virasoro constraints for Hodge integrals in Gromov-Witten theory of any target varieties. Results consist of the following: Firstly, we propose Virasoro conjecture for Hodge integrals in Gromov-Witten…
The aim of Part II is to explore the technique of invariance of tautological equations in the realm of Gromov--Witten theory. The main result is a proof of Invariance Theorem (Invariance Conjecture~1 in [14]), via the techniques from…
This an expository article on Givental's axiomatic Gromov--Witten theory and some of its applications.
We survey some recent work on conformal blocks in genus zero, focussing on (1) Chern classes, global generation and morphisms, and (2) the Knizhnik--Zamolodchikov connection on conformal blocks (and invariants), their motivic realizations,…
We describe a construction of Gromov-Witten invariants for flag varieties and use it to give a presentation for the quantum cohomology ring, by extending the ideas used by Bertram in the case of Grassmannians. This provides a proof for the…
We introduce twisted quantum $K$-rings, defined via twisted $K$-theoretic Gromov-Witten invariants. We develop a toolkit for computing relations by adapting some results about ordinary quantum K rings to our setting, and discuss some…
We prove genus $g$ invariants in quantum $K$-theory are determined by genus zero invariants of a smooth stack in the spirit of K.~Costello's result in Gromov--Witten theory.
The study of open/closed string duality and large $N$ duality suggests a Gromov-Witten theory for conifolds that sits on the border of both a closed Gromov-Witten theory and an open Gromov-Witten theory. In this work we employ the result of…
Quadratic Gromov--Witten invariants allow one to obtain an arithmetically meaningful count of curves satisfying constraints over a field $k$ without assuming that $k$ is the field of complex or real numbers. This paper studies the behavior…
We formulate and study an extension of gerbe duality to relative Gromov-Witten theory.
