The generalized Donaldson-Thomas invariants counting one dimensional semistable sheaves on Calabi-Yau 3-folds are conjectured to satisfy a certain multiple cover formula. This conjecture is equivalent to Pandharipande-Thomas's strong…

This article surveys invariants of four-manifolds and their relation to Donaldson-Witten theory, and other topologically twisted Yang-Mills theories. The article is written for the second edition of the Encyclopedia of Mathematical Physics,…

In this paper we calculate the motivic Donaldson-Thomas invariants for (-2)-curves arising from 3-fold flopping contractions in the minimal model programme. We translate this geometric situation into the machinery developed by Kontsevich…

We apply the wall crossing structure formalism of Kontsevich and Soibelman to Seiberg-Witten integrable systems associated to pure $SU(3)$. This gives an algorithm for computing the Donaldson-Thomas invariants, which correspond to BPS…

We solve the $K$-theoretically refined Donaldson-Thomas theory of local curves. Our results avoid degeneration techniques, but rather exploit direct localisation methods to reduce the refined Donaldson-Thomas partition function to the…

This is the first paper in a series on intrinsic Donaldson-Thomas theory, where we develop a new framework for enumerative geometry that allows the generalization of constructions and results from linear moduli stacks to general non-linear…

We study rational curves of degree two on a smooth sextic 4-fold and their counting invariant defined using Donaldson-Thomas theory of Calabi-Yau 4-folds. By comparing it with the corresponding Gromov-Witten invariant, we verify a…

We establish a comparison between spectral invariants for a symplectic manifold and a Donaldson divisor therein, and answer a question of Borman from 2012 on the reduction of Entov--Polterovich quasimorphisms, under a reasonable assumption.…

This note explains how to deduce the wall-crossing formula for toric mutations established by Pascaleff-Tonkonog from the perverse schober of the corresponding local Landau-Ginzburg model. Along the way, we develop a general framework to…

We extend Donaldson's diagonalization theorem to intersection forms with certain local coefficients, under some constraints. This provides new examples of non-smoothable topological 4-manifolds.

We derive some combinatorial consequences from the positivity of Donaldson-Thomas invariants for symmetric quivers conjectured by Kontsevich and Soibelman and proved recently by Efimov. These results are used to prove the Kac conjecture for…

We review several algebraic, combinatorial and geometric interpretations of motivic Donaldson-Thomas invariants of symmetric quivers.

Let X be a P^1 scroll (a compactification of a line bundle L) over a complex surafce S and assume S has a global two form with zero loci a smooth curve C. The Donaldson Thomas invariants of X is shown to be zero if the curve class has is…

We prove that the K-theoretic Nekrasov instanton partition functions have a positive radius of convergence in the instanton counting parameter and are holomorphic functions of the Coulomb parameters in a suitable domain. We discuss the…

Let $M^K_n$ be the moduli space of framed $K$-instantons over $S^4$ with instanton number $n$ when $K$ is a compact simple Lie group of classical type. Let $U^{K}_{n}$ be the Uhlenbeck partial compactification of $M^{K}_{n}$. A scheme…

Let $X$ be a smooth polarized algebraic surface over the compex number field. We discuss the invariants obtained from the moduli stacks of semistable sheaves of arbitrary ranks on $X$. For that purpose, we construct the virtual fundamental…

Let $G$ be a finite subgroup of $\mathrm{SU}(4)$ whose elements have age not larger than one. In the first part of this paper, we define $K$-theoretic stable pair invariants on the crepant resolution of the affine quotient $\mathbb{C}^4/G$,…

We show that the moduli stacks of Bridgeland semistable objects on smooth projective 3-folds are proper algebraic stacks of finite type, if they satisfy the Bogomolov-Gieseker (BG for short) inequality conjecture proposed by Bayer, Macr\`i…

We prove that Donaldson-Thomas type invariants are equal to weighted Euler characteristics of their moduli spaces. In particular, such invariants depend only on the scheme structure of the moduli space, not the symmetric obstruction theory…

The main result of this paper is the statement that the Hodge theoretic Donaldson-Thomas invariant for a quiver with zero potential and a generic stability condition agrees with the compactly supported intersection cohomology of the closure…
