The multi-Banana configuration $\widehat{F}_{mb}$ is a local Calabi-Yau threefold of Schoen type. Namely, $\widehat{F}_{mb}$ is a conifold resolution of $\widehat{I}_v \times_{\bf{D}} \widehat{I}_w$, where $\widehat{I}_v \to {\bf{D}}$ is an…
The banana manifold $X_{\text{ban}}$ is a smooth projective Calabi-Yau threefold fibered over $\mathbb{P}^{1}$ by abelian surfaces. Each singular fiber contains a "banana configuration of curves" which generates the rank-three lattice…
In analogy with the Gopakumar-Vafa (GV) conjecture on Calabi-Yau (CY) 3-folds, Klemm and Pandharipande defined GV type invariants on Calabi-Yau 4-folds using Gromov-Witten theory and conjectured their integrality. In a joint work with…
We propose a new way to compute the genus zero Gopakumar-Vafa invariants for two families of non-toric non-compact Calabi-Yau threefolds that admit simple flops: Reid's Pagodas, and Laufer's examples. We exploit the duality between M-theory…
A banana manifold is a Calabi-Yau threefold fibered by Abelian surfaces whose singular fibers contain banana configurations: three rational curves meeting each other in two points. A nano-manifold is a Calabi-Yau threefold $X$ with very…
The Gopakumar-Vafa type invariants on Calabi-Yau 4-folds (which are non-trivial only for genus zero and one) are defined by Klemm-Pandharipande from Gromov-Witten theory, and their integrality is conjectured. In a previous work of…
The main purpose of this article is to discuss a project relating Gopakumar-Vafa invariants to quantum K-invariants on Calabi-Yau threefolds. Results in genus zero, including recent and forthcoming works, are reported.
In analogy with the Gopakumar-Vafa conjecture on CY 3-folds, Klemm and Pandharipande defined GV type invariants on Calabi-Yau 4-folds using Gromov-Witten theory and conjectured their integrality. In this paper, we propose a sheaf-theoretic…
A version of the Donaldson-Thomas invariants of a Calabi-Yau threefold is proposed as a conjectural mathematical definition of the Gopakumar-Vafa invariants. These invariants have a local version, which is verified to satisfy the required…
A banana manifold is a compact Calabi-Yau threefold, fibered by Abelian surfaces, whose singular fibers have a singular locus given by a "banana configuration of curves". A basic example is given by $X_{ban}$, the blowup along the diagonal…
We develop a theory of Gopakumar-Vafa (GV) invariants for a Calabi-Yau threefold (CY3) $X$ which is equipped with an involution $\imath$ preserving the holomorphic volume form. We define integers $n_{g,h}(\beta) $ which give a virtual count…
We show that the non-commutative widths for flopping curves on smooth 3-folds introduced by Donovan-Wemyss are described by Katz's genus zero Gopakumar-Vafa invariants.
In this paper, we present an investigation of the Gopakumar-Vafa (GV) invariant, a curve-counting integral invariant associated with Calabi-Yau threefolds, as proposed by physicists. Building upon the conjectural definition of the GV…
Using reduced Gromov-Witten theory, we define new invariants which capture the enumerative geometry of curves on holomorphic symplectic 4-folds. The invariants are analogous to the BPS counts of Gopakumar and Vafa for Calabi-Yau 3-folds,…
Let $X\subset \mathbb P^r$ be a projective factorial variety of dimension $3$, degree $n$, with at worst isolated singularities. Assume that the Picard group of $X$ is generated by the hyperplane section class. Let $C\subset X$ be a…
In this paper, we propose an ansatz for defining Gopakumar-Vafa invariants of Calabi-Yau threefolds, using perverse sheaves of vanishing cycles. Our proposal is a modification of a recent approach of Kiem-Li, which is itself based on…
This is the second part of our ongoing project on the relations between Gopakumar-Vafa BPS invariants (GV) and quantum K-theory (QK) on the Calabi--Yau threefolds (CY3). We show that on CY3 a genus zero quantum K-invariant can be written as…
We make a proposal for calculating refined Gopakumar-Vafa numbers (GVN) on elliptically fibered Calabi-Yau 3-folds based on refined holomorphic anomaly equations. The key examples are smooth elliptic fibrations over (almost) Fano surfaces.…
We give an alternate proof of the integrality conjecture of genus zero Gopakumar-Vafa type invariants on semi-positive varieties using algebraic geometry. The main technique is to relate Gopakumar-Vafa type invariants to quantum…
We prove a conjectural correspondence of Cao-Maulik-Toda which relates Gopakumar-Vafa invariants of fiber classes on a smooth projective Calabi-Yau 4-fold fibered over a curve to the Gopakumar-Vafa invariants of a smooth fiber under an…
