We show that the standard generating functions for genus 0 two-point twisted Gromov-Witten invariants arising from concavex vector bundles over symplectic toric manifolds are explicit transforms of the corresponding one-point generating…
According to \cite{BOSS} and \cite{M1}, the ancestor correlators of any semi-simple cohomological field theory satisfy {\em local} Eynard--Orantin recursion. In this paper, we prove that for simple singularities, the local recursion can be…
We show that any degree at least $g$ polynomial in descendant or tautological classes vanishes on $M_{g,n}$ when $g\ge 2$. This generalizes a result of Looijenga and proves a version of Getzler's conjecture. The method we use is the study…
An effective algorithm of determining Gromov--Witten invariants of smooth hypersurfaces in any genus (subject to a degree bound) from Gromov--Witten invariants of the ambient space is proposed. The Appendix is joint with E. Schulte-Geers.
We rederive a relation between the genus-one GW-invariants of a quintic threefold in $\Pf$ and the genus-zero and genus-one GW-invariants of $\Pf$. In contrast to the more general derivation in a separate paper, the present derivation…
We first study the quantum product on the big phase space defined by gravitational Gromov-Witten invariants. We then use this product to give an interpretation for various topological recursion relations and also use it to study the…
In our previous two papers, we constructed an $r$-spin theory in genus zero for Riemann surfaces with boundary and fully determined the corresponding intersection numbers, providing an analogue of Witten's $r$-spin conjecture in genus zero…
We define a new Gromov-Witten theory relative to simple normal crossing divisors as a limit of Gromov-Witten theory of multi-root stacks. Several structural properties are proved including relative quantum cohomology, Givental formalism,…
Several properties of a hyepergeometric series related to Gromov-Witten theory of some Calabi-Yau geometries was studied in [8]. These properties play basic role in the study of higher genus Gromov-Witten theories. We extend the results of…
In this paper we compute certain two-point integrals over a moduli space of stable maps into projective space. Computation of one-point analogues of these integrals constitutes a proof of mirror symmetry for genus-zero one-point…
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)…
We use a combinatorial interpretation of the coefficients of zonal Kerov polynomials as a number of unoriented maps to derive an explicit formula for the coefficients in genus one.
To a pair $(A,s)$ consisting of a smooth, cyclic $A_\infty$-algebra $A$ and a splitting $s$ of the Hodge filtration on its Hochschild homology Costello (2005) associates an invariant which conjecturally generalizes the total descendant…
In [Gi3] Givental introduced and studied a space of formal genus zero Gromov-Witten theories $GW_0$, i.e. functions satisfying string and dilaton equations and topological recursion relations. A central role in the theory plays the geometry…
According to a conjecture of E. Witten proved by M. Kontsevich, a certain generating function for intersection indices on the Deligne -- Mumford moduli spaces of Riemann surfaces coincides with a certain tau-function of the KdV hierarchy.…
We study the enumerative geometry of stable maps to Calabi-Yau 5-folds $Z$ with a group action preserving the Calabi-Yau form. In the central case $Z=X \times \mathbb{C}^2$, where $X$ is a Calabi-Yau 3-fold with a group action scaling the…
A bicyclic pair is a smooth surface equipped with a pair of smooth divisors intersecting in two reduced points. Resolutions of self-nodal curves constitute an important special case. We investigate the logarithmic Gromov-Witten theory of…
We formulate a Crepant Resolution Correspondence for open Gromov-Witten invariants (OCRC) of toric Calabi-Yau orbifolds by viewing the open theories as sections of Givental's symplectic vector space and the correspondence as a linear map of…
Let $(X,E)$ be a smooth log Calabi-Yau pair consisting of a smooth Fano surface $X$ and a smooth anticanonical divisor $E$. We obtain certain higher genus local Gromov-Witten invariants from the projectivization of the canonical bundle $Z…
In this paper, we show that the derivative of the genus-1 Virasoro conjecture for Gromov-Witten invariants along the direction of quantum volume element holds for all smooth projective varieties. This result provides new evidence for the…
