We address a unification of the Schubert calculus problems solved by [A. Buch '02] and [A. Knutson-T. Tao '03]. That is, we prove a combinatorial rule for the structure coefficients in the torus-equivariant K-theory of Grassmannians with…
We study the three point genus zero Gromov-Witten invariants on the Grassmannians which parametrize non-maximal isotropic subspaces in a vector space equipped with a nondegenerate symmetric or skew-symmetric form. We establish Pieri rules…
We prove that the quantum cohomology ring of any minuscule or cominuscule homogeneous space, once localized at the quantum parameter, has a non trivial involution mapping Schubert classes to multiples of Schubert classes. This can be stated…
We study quantum geometry of Nakajima quiver varieties of two different types - framed A-type quivers and ADHM quivers. While these spaces look completely different we find a surprising connection between equivariant K-theories thereof with…
Quillen's algebraic K-theory is reconstructed via Voevodsky's algebraic cobordism. More precisely, for a ground field k the algebraic cobordism P^1-spectrum MGL of Voevodsky is considered as a commutative P^1-ring spectrum. There is a…
Given a smooth projective variety $X$ and a smooth nef divisor $D$, we identify genus zero relative Gromov--Witten invariants of $(X,D)$ with $(n+1)$ relative markings with genus zero orbifold Gromov--Witten invariants of multi-root stacks…
We prove a formula expressing the $K$-theoretic log Gromov-Witten invariants of a product of log smooth varieties $V \times W$ in terms of the invariants of $V$ and $W$. The proof requires introducing log virtual fundamental classes in…
For a reductive group scheme over a regular semi-local ring, we prove an equivarinat version of the Gersten conjecture. We draw some interesting consequences for the representation rings of such reductive group schemes. We also prove the…
We study the algebra of Wilson line operators in three-dimensional N=2 supersymmetric U(M) gauge theories with a Higgs phase related to a complex Grassmannian Gr(M,N), and its connection to K-theoretic Gromov-Witten invariants for Gr(M,N).…
We derive a $K$-theoretic analogue of the Vafa--Intriligator formula, computing the (virtual) Euler characteristics of vector bundles over the Quot scheme that compactifies the space of degree $d$ morphisms from a fixed projective curve to…
The aim of this paper is to describe the topological $K$-ring, in terms of generators and relations, of a Springer variety $\mathcal{F}_{\lambda}$ of type $A$ associated to a nilpotent operator having Jordan canonical form whose block sizes…
In this paper, we study the all genus Gromov-Witten theory for any GKM orbifold $X$. We generalize the Givental formula which is studied in the smooth case in \cite{Giv2} \cite{Giv3} \cite{Giv4} to the orbifold case. Specifically, we…
Let g be a semi-simple Lie algebra. In this paper we study the spaces of based quasi-maps from the projective line P^1 to the flag variety of g (it is well-known that their singularities are supposed to model the singularities of the so…
Using a finite-dimensional Clifford algebra a new combinatorial product formula for the small quantum cohomology ring of the complex Grassmannian is presented. In particular, Gromov-Witten invariants can be expressed through certain…
The quantum cohomology ring of the Grassmannian is determined by the quantum Pieri rule for multiplying by Schubert classes indexed by row or column-shaped partitions. We provide a direct equivariant generalization of Postnikov's quantum…
There are two intriguing statements regarding the quantum cohomology of partial flag varieties. The first one relates quantum cohomology to the affinisation of Lie algebras and the homology of the affine Grassmannian, the second one…
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 use Noether-Lefschetz theory to study the reduced Gromov--Witten invariants of a holomorphic-symplectic variety of $K3^{[n]}$-type. This yields strong evidence for a new conjectural formula that expresses Gromov-Witten invariants of this…
We show that various genus zero Gromov-Witten invariants for flag varieties representing different homology classes are indeed the same. In particular, many of them are classical intersection numbers of Schubert cycles.
We show that the equivariant small quantum $K$-group of a partial flag manifold is a quotient of that of the full flag manifold in a way that respects the Schubert classes. This is a $K$-theoretic analogue of the parabolic version of…
