Simple boundary expressions for the k-th power of the cotangent line class on the moduli space of stable 1-pointed genus g curves are found for k >= 2g. The method is by virtual localization on the moduli space of maps to the projective…
By work of Looijenga and others, one has a good understanding of the relationship between GIT and Baily-Borel compactifications for the moduli spaces of degree 2 K3 surfaces, cubic fourfolds, and a few other related examples. The…
The first part of this work constructs positive-genus real Gromov-Witten invariants of real-orientable symplectic manifolds of odd "complex" dimensions; the present part focuses on their properties that are essential for actually working…
We describe genus g>1 potentials of semisimple Frobenius structures. Our formula can be considered as a definition in the axiomatic context of Frobenius manifolds. In Gromov-Witten theory, it becomes a conjecture expressing higher genus…
We investigate Gromov-Witten invariants associated to exceptional classes for primitive birational contractions on a Calabi-Yau threefold X. It was observed in a previous paper that these invariants are locally defined, in that they can be…
I give a conjectural generating function for the numbers of $\delta$-nodal curves in a linear system of dimension $\delta$ on an algebraic surface. It reproduces the results of Vainsencher for the case $\delta\le 6$ and Kleiman-Piene for…
In This paper, we survey recent progress on the theory of Gromov- Witten invariants on Hilbert schemes of points mainly on elliptic surfaces and simply connected minimal surface of general type. In particular, we focus on the aspects of…
This note is a summary of our work [OO] which provides an explicit and global moduli-theoretic framework for the collapsing of Ricci-flat Kahler metrics and we use it to study especially the K3 surfaces case. For instance, it allows us to…
In this paper, we present foundational material towards the development of a rigorous enumerative theory of stable maps with Lagrangian boundary conditions, ie stable maps from bordered Riemann surfaces to a symplectic manifold, such that…
Relationships between moduli spaces of curves and sheaves on 3-folds are presented starting with the Gromov-Witten/Donaldson-Thomas correspondence proposed more than 20 years ago with D. Maulik, N. Nekrasov, and A. Okounkov. The descendent…
Given a family of abelian covers of $\mathbb{P}^1$ and a prime $p$ of good reduction, by considering the associated Deligne--Mostow Shimura variety, we obtain lower bounds for the Ekedahl-Oort type, and the Newton polygon, at $p$ of the…
As another application of the degeneration methods of [V3], we count the number of irreducible degree $d$ geometric genus $g$ plane curves, with fixed multiple points on a conic $E$, not containing $E$, through an appropriate number of…
Twisted Gromov-Witten invariants are intersection numbers in moduli spaces of stable maps to a manifold or orbifold X which depend in addition on a vector bundle over X and an invertible multiplicative characteristic class. Special cases…
We characterise genus 3 complex smooth hyperelliptic curves that contain two additional involutions as curves that can be build from five points in $\mathbb{P}^1$ with a distinguished triple. We are able to write down explicit equations for…
Let $A$ be an abelian variety. We introduce $A$-equivariant Grothendieck rings and $A$-equivariant motivic Hall algebras, and endow them with natural integration maps to the ring of dual numbers. The construction allows a systematic…
We prove, assuming the generalized Riemann hypothesis, the Andre-Oort conjecture for Hilbert modular surfaces. More precisely, let K be a real quadratic field and let S be the coarse moduli space of complex abelian surfaces with…
In this paper we prove that the GW invariants of the elliptic orbifold lines with weights (3,3,3), (4,4,2), and (6,3,2) are quasi-modular forms. Our method is based on Givental's higher genus reconstruction formalism applied to the settings…
We derive a closed formula for the generating function of genus two Gromov-Witten invariants of quintic 3-folds and verify the corresponding mirror symmetry conjecture of Bershadsky, Cecotti, Ooguri and Vafa.
A $K3$ surface with an ample divisor of self-intersection 2 is a double cover of the plane branched over a sextic curve. We conjecture that a similar statement holds for the generic couple $(X,H)$ with $X$ a deformation of $(K3)^{[n]}$ and…
The geometric torsion conjecture asserts that the torsion part of the Mordell--Weil group of a family of abelian varieties over a complex quasiprojective curve is uniformly bounded in terms of the genus of the curve. We prove the conjecture…
