Abstract

We derive a Bouchard--Eynard type topological recursion for the total descendant potential of ANA_N-singularity. Our argument relies on a certain twisted representation of a Heisenberg Vertex Operator Algebra (VOA) constructed via the periods of ANA_N-singularity. In particular, our approach allows us to prove that the topological recursion for the total descendant potential is equivalent to a certain generating set of W\mathcal{W}-algebra constraints.
