We construct a mathematical theory of Witten's Gauged Linear Sigma Model (GLSM). Our theory applies to a wide range of examples, including many cases with non-Abelian gauge group. Both the Gromov-Witten theory of a Calabi-Yau complete…
The gauged Witten equation was essentially introduced by Witten in his formulation of gauged linear $\sigma$-model (GLSM). GLSM is a physics theory which explains the so-called Landau-Ginzburg/Calabi-Yau correspondence. This is the first…
We construct a cohomological field theory for a gauged linear sigma model space in geometric phase, using the method of gauge theory and differential geometry. The cohomological field theory is expected to match the Gromov-Witten theory of…
Outlined in this paper is a description of \emph{equivariance} in the world of 2-dimensional extended topological quantum field theories, under a topological action of compactLie groups. In physics language, I am gauging the theories ---…
In this paper, we revisit the A-twisted gauged linear sigma models (GLSMs) whose geometric phases are complex K\"ahler supermanifolds. For abelian models without superpotentials we propose an explicit orbifold description of the…
We describe a topological field theory that studies the moduli space of solutions of the symplectic vortex equations. It contains as special cases the topological sigma-model and topological Yang-Mills over Kahler surfaces. The correlation…
We study a one-parameter family of gauged linear sigma models (GLSMs) naturally associated to a complete intersection in weighted projective space. In the positive phase of the family we recover Gromov-Witten theory of the complete…
For a complex projective manifold Gromov-Witten invariants can be constructed either algebraically or symplectically. Using the versions of Gromov-Witten theory by Behrend and Fantechi on the algebraic side and by the author on the…
A systematic description of the Wess-Zumino-Witten model is presented. The symplectic method plays the major role in this paper and also gives the relationship between the WZW model and the Chern-Simons model. The quantum theory is obtained…
We survey the progress on the study of symplectic geometry past five decades. The survey focuses on the convexity properties of a moment map, the classification of symplectic actions, the symplectic embedding problems, and the theory of…
Gromov-Witten invariants of a symplectic manifold are a count of holomorphic curves. We describe a formula expressing the GW invariants of a symplectic sum $X# Y$ in terms of the relative GW invariants of $X$ and $Y$. This formula has…
In this article we briefly survey some developments in gauged linear sigma models (GLSMs). Specifically, we give an overview of progress on constructions of GLSMs for various geometries, GLSM-based computations of quantum cohomology,…
We define higher genus Gromov-Witten invariants and establish a mathematical theory of sigma model coupled with gravity over any semi-positive symplectic manifolds. As applications, we verify the stablizing conjecture of symplectic…
In this paper we explore nonabelian gauged linear sigma models (GLSMs) for symplectic and orthogonal Grassmannians and flag manifolds, checking e.g. global symmetries, Witten indices, and Calabi-Yau conditions, following up a proposal in…
Let $(X,\om)$ be a symplectic manifold and $L$ be a Lagrangian submanifold diffeomorphic to $S^n$, $\R\P^n$, or a Lens space of a certain type. Using the symplectic cut and symplectic sum constructions, we express the open Gromov-Witten…
In this paper we consider symplectic and Hamiltonian structures of systems generated by actions of sigma-model type and show that these systems are naturally connected with specific symplectic geometry on loop spaces of Riemannian and…
This paper introduces the geometry of the open string Floer theory of gauged Landau-Ginzburg model via gauged Witten equations. Given a $G$-invariant Morse-Bott holomorphic function $W$ on a Hamiltonian space $(M,\omega,G),$ Lefschetz…
We sketch in this article a new theory, which we call Symplectic Field Theory or SFT, which provides an approach to Gromov-Witten invariants of symplectic manifolds and their Lagrangian submanifolds in the spirit of topological field…
We introduce a variant of stable logarithmic maps, which we call punctured logarithmic maps. They allow an extension of logarithmic Gromov-Witten theory in which marked points have a negative order of tangency with boundary divisors. As a…
Generalizing local Gromov-Witten theory, in this paper we define a local version of symplectic field theory. When the symplectic manifold with cylindrical ends is four-dimensional and the underlying simple curve is regular by automatic…
