We outline a strategy for computing intersection numbers on smooth varieties with torus actions using a residue formula of Bott. As an example, Gromov-Witten numbers of twisted cubic and elliptic quartic curves on some general complete…

We consider the Quot scheme, R_{d}, compactifying the space of degree d maps from the projective line to the Grassmannian of lines. We give an algorithm for computing the degree of R_{d} under a "generalized Pl\"ucker embedding", this is a…
This paper contains an attempt to formulate rigorously and to check predictions in enumerative geometry of curves following from Mirror Symmetry. The main tool is a new notion of stable map. We give an outline of a contsruction of…
All reduced descendent Gromov-Witten invariants of $K3$ and abelian surfaces in primitive curve classes can be calculated by the methods of \cite{BOPY,MPT}. To handle the imprimitive curve classes, a multiple cover formula was conjectured…
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 the Gromov-Witten/Pairs descendent correspondence for toric 3-folds and degeneration arguments to establish the GW/P correspondence for several compact Calabi-Yau 3-folds (including all CY complete intersections in products of…
We propose an intersection-theoretic method to reduce questions in genus zero logarithmic Gromov-Witten theory to questions in the Gromov-Witten theory of smooth pairs, in the presence of positivity. The method is applied to the enumerative…
Let X be a smooth complex projective variety, and let Y in X be a smooth very ample hypersurface such that -K_Y is nef. Using the technique of relative Gromov-Witten invariants, we give a new short and geometric proof of (a version of) the…
Given two general rational curves of the same degree in two projective spaces, one can ask whether there exists a third rational curve of the same degree that projects to both of them. We show that, under suitable assumptions on the degree…
We give close formulas for the counting functions of rational curves on complete intersection Calabi-Yau manifolds in terms of special solutions of generalized hypergeometric differential systems. For the one modulus cases we derive a…
We calculate the genus zero cobordism-valued Gromov-Witten invariants of a point by refining the string equation on $\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{0,n}$ from the Chow ring to algebraic cobordism. This gives inductive formulas for cobordism-valued…
Multivariate residues appear in many different contexts in theoretical physics and algebraic geometry. In theoretical physics, they for example give the proper definition of generalized-unitarity cuts, and they play a central role in the…
We prove that some Gromov-Witten numbers associated to rational contact (Legendrian) curves in any contact complex projective space with arbitrary incidence conditions are enumerative. Also, we use Bott formula on the Kontsevich space to…
We discuss some properties of the relative Gromov--Witten invariants counting rational curves with maximal contact order at one point. We compute the number of Cayley's sextactic conics to any smooth plane curve $Y$. In particular, we…
Gromov-Witten theory is used to define an enumerative geometry of curves in Calabi-Yau 5-folds. We find recursions for meeting numbers of genus 0 curves, and we determine the contributions of moving multiple covers of genus 0 curves to the…
In the first part of this paper, we obtain mirror formulas for twisted genus 0 two-point Gromov-Witten (GW) invariants of projective spaces and for the genus 0 two-point GW-invariants of Fano and Calabi-Yau complete intersections. This…
The predictions of the Mirror Symmetry are extended in dimensions n>3 and are proven for projective complete intersections Calabi-Yau varieties. Precisely, we prove that the total collection of rational Gromov-Witten invariants of such…
We study a natural family of non-local elliptic boundary problems on a compact oriented surface $\Sigma$ parametrized by the moduli space $\mathcal{M}_\Sigma$ of flat $G$-connections with framing along $\partial \Sigma$. This family…
The Atiyah-Bott Lefschetz Formula is a well-known formula for computing the equivariant index of an elliptic operator on a compact smooth manifold. We provide an analogue of this formula for the based loop group $\Omega SU(2)$ with respect…
