Abstract

We study the BPS invariants for local del Pezzo surfaces, which can be obtained as the signed Euler characteristic of the moduli spaces of stable one-dimensional sheaves on the surface SS. We calculate the Poincare polynomials of the moduli spaces for the curve classes β\beta having arithmetic genus at most 2. We formulate a conjecture that these Poincare polynomials are divisible by the Poincare polynomials of ((KS).β1)((-K_S).\beta-1)-dimensional projective space. This conjecture motivates upcoming work on log BPS numbers.
