AbstractLet χ be a smooth proper Deligne–Mumford stack over ℂ. One can define twisted orbifold Gromov–Witten invariants of χ by considering multiplicative invertible characteristic classes of various bundles on the moduli spaces of stable maps χg,n,d, cupping them with evaluation and cotangent line classes, and then integrating against the virtual fundamental class. These are more general than the twisted invariants introduced by Tseng. We express the generating series of the twisted invariants in terms of the generating series of the untwisted ones. We derive the corollaries which are used in a paper with Givental about the quantum K-theory of a complex compact manifold X.

AbstractWe analyze the relationship between two compactifications of the moduli space of maps from curves to a Grassmannian: the Kontsevich moduli space of stable maps and the Marian–Oprea–Pandharipande moduli space of stable quotients. We construct a moduli space which dominates both the moduli space of stable maps to a Grassmannian and the moduli space of stable quotients, and equip our moduli space with a virtual fundamental class. We relate the virtual fundamental classes of all three moduli spaces using the virtual push-forward formula. This gives a new proof of a theorem of Marian–Oprea–Pandharipande: that enumerative invariants defined as intersection numbers in the stable quotient moduli space coincide with Gromov–Witten invariants.

Abstract We prove a higher genus version of the genus $0$ local-relative correspondence of van Garrel-Graber-Ruddat: for $(X,D)$ a pair with X a smooth projective variety and D a nef smooth divisor, maximal contact Gromov-Witten theory of $(X,D)$ with $\lambda _g$ -insertion is related to Gromov-Witten theory of the total space of ${\mathcal O}_X(-D)$ and local Gromov-Witten theory of D. Specializing to $(X,D)=(S,E)$ for S a del Pezzo surface or a rational elliptic surface and E a smooth anticanonical divisor, we show that maximal contact Gromov-Witten theory of $(S,E)$ is determined by the Gromov-Witten theory of the Calabi-Yau 3-fold ${\mathcal O}_S(-E)$ and the stationary Gromov-Witten theory of the elliptic curve E. Specializing further to $S={\mathbb P}^2$ , we prove that higher genus generating series of maximal contact Gromov-Witten invariants of $({\mathbb P}^2,E)$ are quasimodular and satisfy a holomorphic anomaly equation. The proof combines the quasimodularity results and the holomorphic anomaly equations previously known for local ${\mathbb P}^2$ and the elliptic curve. Furthermore, using the connection between maximal contact Gromov-Witten invariants of $({\mathbb P}^2,E)$ and Betti numbers of moduli spaces of semistable one-dimensional sheaves on ${\mathbb P}^2$ , we obtain a proof of the quasimodularity and holomorphic anomaly equation predicted in the physics literature for the refined topological string free energy of local ${\mathbb P}^2$ in the Nekrasov-Shatashvili limit.

AbstractIn this paper we prove that the cone of effective divisors on the Kontsevich moduli spaces of stable maps, , stabilize when r ≥ d. We give a complete characterization of the effective divisors on . They are non-negative linear combinations of boundary divisors and the divisor of maps with degenerate image.

We compare the Kontsevich moduli space [Formula: see text] of stable maps to projective space with the quasi-map space ℙ( Sym d(ℂ2) ⊗ ℂn)//SL(2). Consider the birational map [Formula: see text] which assigns to an n tuple of degree d homogeneous polynomials f1, …, fn in two variables, the map f = (f1 : ⋯ : fn) : ℙ1 → ℙn-1. In this paper, for d = 3, we prove that [Formula: see text] is the composition of three blow-ups followed by two blow-downs. Furthermore, we identify the blow-up/down centers explicitly in terms of the moduli spaces [Formula: see text] with d = 1, 2. In particular, [Formula: see text] is the SL(2)-quotient of a smooth rational projective variety. The degree two case [Formula: see text], which is the blow-up of ℙ( Sym 2ℂ2 ⊗ ℂn)//SL(2) along ℙn-1, is worked out as a preliminary example.
