We study the Gromov-Witten theory of $K_{\mathsf{P}^1\times\mathsf{P}^1}$ and some Calabi-Yau hypersurface in toric variety. We give a direct geometric proof of the holomorphic anomaly euqation for $K_{\mathsf{P}^1\times\mathsf{P}^1}$ in…
We prove that any three-point genus zero Gromov-Witten invariant on a type A Grassmannian is equal to a classical intersection number on a two-step flag variety. We also give symplectic and orthogonal analogues of this result; in these…
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…
We prove that every degree-g polynomial in the $\psi$-classes on $\overline{\mathcal M}_{g, n}$ can be expressed as a sum of tautological classes supported on the boundary with no $\kappa$-classes. Such equations, which we refer to as…
This paper wishes to foster communication between mathematicians and physicists working in mirror symmetry and orbifold Gromov-Witten theory. We provide a reader friendly review of the physics computation in [arXiv:hep-th/0607100] that…
A geometric construction of Getzler's cohomological relation in the moduli space of 4 pointed elliptic curves is given by a push-forward of a natural rational equivalence in a space of admissible covers. In particular, Getzler's relation is…
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…
We study the relationship between Gromov-Witten invariants of local $\mathbb{P}^4$ and Gromov-witten invariants of $[\mathbb{C}^5/\mathbb{Z}_5]$ for all genera. We state the crepant resolution conjecture in explicit form and prove this…
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…
In the approach to Gromov-Witten theory developed by Givental, genus-zero Gromov-Witten invariants of a manifold X are encoded by a Lagrangian cone in a certain infinite-dimensional symplectic vector space. We give a construction of this…
Let $X$ be a smooth projective surface and $D$ a smooth rational ample divisor in $X$. We prove an all-genus generalization of the genus $0$ WDVV equation for primary Gromov--Witten invariants of the local 3-fold $\mathcal{O}_X(-D)$. The…
Log Gromov-Witten invariants have recently been defined separately by Gross and Siebert and Abramovich and Chen. This paper provides a dictionary between log geometry and holomorphic exploded manifolds in order to compare Gromov-Witten…
In this paper, we study the Gromov-Witten theory of the Hilbert schemes X^{[n]} of points on smooth projective surfaces X with positive geometric genus p_g. Using cosection localization technique due to Y. Kiem and J. Li [KL1, KL2], we…
In this paper, using the degeneration formula we obtain a blowup formulae of local Gromov-Witten invariants of Fano surfaces. This formula makes it possible to compute the local Gromov-Witten invariants of non-toric Fano surfaces form toric…
We obtain a formula for the number of genus one curves with a variable complex structure of a given degree on a del-Pezzo surface that pass through an appropriate number of generic points of the surface. This is done using Getzler's…
We introduce marked relative Pandharipande-Thomas (PT) invariants for a pair $(X,D)$ of a smooth projective threefold and a smooth divisor. These invariants are defined by integration over the moduli space of $r$-marked stable pairs on…
We compute the purely real Welschinger invariants, both original and modified, for all real del Pezzo surfaces of degree at least 2. We show that under some conditions, for such a surface $X$ and a real nef and big divisor class $D$,…
We study the degeneration and the gluing of Kuranishi structures in Gromov-Witten theory under a symplectic cut. This leads us to a degeneration axiom and a gluing axiom for open Gromov-Witten invariants. They provide then a route to the…
Gromov-Witten invariants have been constructed to be deformation invariant, but their behavior under other transformations is subtle. In this note we show that logarithmic Gromov-Witten invariants are also invariant under appropriately…
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…
