Ardila and Brugall\'e conjectured that double tropical Welschinger invariants of Hirzebruch surfaces are piecewise quasipolynomial. In this work, we prove the conjecture holds in full generality, i.e. for toric surfaces corresponding to…

G. Mikhalkin introduced a refined count for real rational curves in a toric surface which pass through some points on the toric boundary of the surface. The refinement is provided by the value of a so-called quantum index. Moreover, he…

This is an overview of some of the invariants that were discovered by Welschinger in the context of enumerative real algebraic geometry. Their definition finds a natural setup in real symplectic geometry. In particular, they can be studied…

Patchworking theorems serve as a basic element of the correspondence between tropical and algebraic curves, which is a core of the tropical enumerative geometry. We present a new version of a patchworking theorem which relates plane…

We compute local Gromov-Witten invariants of cubic surfaces at all genera. We use a deformation of a cubic surface to a nef toric surface and the deformation invariance of Gromov-Witten invariants.

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…

Recently, the first and third author proved a correspondence theorem which recovers the Levine-Welschinger invariants of toric del Pezzo surfaces as a count of tropical curves weighted with arithmetic multiplicities. In this paper, we study…

The Welschinger numbers, a kind of a real analog of the Gromov-Witten numbers which count the complex rational curves through a given generic collection of points, bound from below the number of real rational curves for any real generic…

According to [3], a real surgery of a real del Pezzo surface $X_\mathbb{R}$ along a real sphere $S$ is a modification of the real structure on $X_\mathbb{R}$ in a neighborhood of $S$. In this paper, we study the behavior of higher genus…

We generalize Block-G\"ottsche polynomials, originally defined for toric del Pezzo surfaces, to arbitrary surfaces. To do this, we show that these polynomials arise as special cases of BPS polynomials, defined for any surface $S$ as Laurent…
