Nagao-Nakajima introduced counting invariants of stable perverse coherent systems on small resolutions of Calabi-Yau 3-folds and determined them on the resolved conifold. Their invariants recover DT/PT invariants and Szendr\"oi's…

We introduce moduli spaces of stable perverse coherent systems on small crepant resolutions of Calabi-Yau 3-folds and consider their Donaldson-Thomas type counting invariants. The stability depends on the choice of a component (= a chamber)…

We develop a theory of Gopakumar-Vafa (GV) invariants for a Calabi-Yau threefold (CY3) $X$ which is equipped with an involution $\imath$ preserving the holomorphic volume form. We define integers $n_{g,h}(\beta) $ which give a virtual count…

We relate Pandharipande-Thomas stable pair invariants on Calabi-Yau 3-folds containing the projective plane with those on the derived equivalent orbifolds via wall-crossing method. The difference is described by generalized Donaldson-Thomas…

We define the BPS invariants of Gopakumar-Vafa in the case of irreducible curve classes on Calabi-Yau 3-folds. The main tools are the theory of stable pairs in the derived category and Behrend's constructible function approach to the…

We construct curve counting invariants for a Calabi-Yau threefold $Y$ equipped with a dominant birational morphism $\pi:Y \to X$. Our invariants generalize the stable pair invariants of Pandharipande and Thomas which occur for the case when…

We first construct a derived equivalence between a small crepant resolution of an affine toric Calabi-Yau 3-fold and a certain quiver with a superpotential. Under this derived equivalence we establish a wall-crossing formula for the…

We prove a conjectural correspondence of Cao-Maulik-Toda which relates Gopakumar-Vafa invariants of fiber classes on a smooth projective Calabi-Yau 4-fold fibered over a curve to the Gopakumar-Vafa invariants of a smooth fiber under an…

In analogy with the Gopakumar-Vafa (GV) conjecture on Calabi-Yau (CY) 3-folds, Klemm and Pandharipande defined GV type invariants on Calabi-Yau 4-folds using Gromov-Witten theory and conjectured their integrality. In a joint work with…

We prove the elliptic transformation law of Jacobi forms for the generating series of Pandharipande--Thomas invariants of an elliptic Calabi--Yau 3-fold over a reduced class in the base. This proves part of a conjecture by Huang, Katz, and…

The generating series of descendent invariants of stable pairs on 3-folds is conjectured to be rational and to satisfy a $q\leftrightarrow q^{-1}$ symmetry. We prove this conjecture for Fano 3-folds. We utilize the same path of stability…

As an analogy to Gopakumar-Vafa conjecture on Calabi-Yau 3-folds, Klemm-Pandharipande defined Gopakumar-Vafa type invariants of a Calabi-Yau 4-fold $X$ using Gromov-Witten theory. When $X$ is holomorphic symplectic, Gromov-Witten invariants…
