We prove a splitting formula that reconstructs the logarithmic Gromov- Witten invariants of simple normal crossing varieties from the punctured Gromov- Witten invariants of their irreducible components, under the assumption of the gluing…
We study the Poisson structure associated to the defocusing Ablowitz-Ladik equation from a functional-analytical point of view, by reexpressing the Poisson bracket in terms of the associated Caratheodory function. Using this expression, we…
This paper shows that the Ablowitz-Ladik hierarchy of equations (a well-known integrable discretization of the Non-linear Schrodinger system) can be explicitly viewed as a hierarchy of commuting flows which: (a) are Hamiltonian with respect…
We investigate the effect of a general toric wall crossing on genus zero Gromov-Witten theory. Given two complete toric orbifolds $X_+$ and $X_-$ related by wall crossing under variation of GIT, we prove that their respective $I$-functions…
We compute the genus one correction to the integrable hierarchy describing coupling to gravity of a 2D topological field theory. The bihamiltonian structure of the hierarchy is given by a classical W-algebra; we compute the central charge…
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…
We study the reduced descendent Gromov-Witten theory of K3 surfaces in primitive curve classes. We present a conjectural closed formula for the stationary theory, which generalizes the Bryan-Leung formula. We also prove a new recursion that…
We compute certain open Gromov-Witten invariants for toric Calabi-Yau threefolds. The proof relies on a relation for ordinary Gromov-Witten invariants for threefolds under certain birational transformation, and a recent result of Kwokwai…
We review various aspects of integrable hierarchies appearing in N=2 supersymmetric gauge theories. In particular, we show that the blowup function in Donaldson-Witten theory, up to a redefinition of the fast times, is a tau function for a…
For a target variety $X$ and a nodal curve $C$, we introduce a one-parameter stability condition, termed $\epsilon$-admissibility, for maps from nodal curves to $X\times C$. If $X$ is a point, $\epsilon$-admissibility interpolates between…
We define Gromov-Witten classes and invariants of smooth proper tame Deligne-Mumford stacks of finite presentation over a Dedekind domain. We prove that they are deformation invariants and verify the fundamental axioms. For a smooth proper…
This is a review of recent results on the integrable structure of the ordinary and modified melting crystal models. When deformed by special external potentials, the partition function of the ordinary melting crystal model is known to…
We review progress on the generalized Witten conjecture and some of its major ingredients. This conjecture states that certain intersection numbers on the moduli space of higher spin curves assemble into the logarithm of the tau function of…
Following the general results on the relationships about Backlund transformations (BTs) and exact discretisation given in a previous work [12], we consider the Ablowitz-Ladik hierarchy and a corresponding family of BTs. After discussing the…
We compute the Gromov-Witten potential at all genera of target smooth Riemann surfaces using Symplectic Field Theory techniques and establish differential equations for the full descendant potential. This amounts to impose (and possibly…
The present note overviews our recent construction of real Gromov-Witten theory in arbitrary genera for many real symplectic manifolds, including the odd-dimensional projective spaces and the renowned quintic threefold, its properties, and…
We construct the quantum double ramification hierarchy associated with the Gromov-Witten theory of elliptic curves. We use results of Oberdieck and Pixton on the intersection numbers of the double ramification cycle, the Gromov-Witten…
The Steenrod problem for closed orientable manifolds was solved completely by Thom. Following this approach, we solve the Steenrod problem for closed orientable orbifolds, proving that the rational homology groups of a closed orientable…
Orbifold and logarithmic structures provide independent routes to the virtual enumeration of curves with tangency orders for a simple normal crossings pair $(X|D)$. The theories do not coincide and their relationship has remained…
In this paper we identify the problem of equivariant vortex counting in a $(2,2)$ supersymmetric two dimensional quiver gauged linear sigma model with that of computing the equivariant Gromov-Witten invariants of the GIT quotient target…
