Open-closed duality in higher genus and winding

Abstract

Let $X$ be a toric Fano surface. Let $\pi: \widehat{X} \rightarrow X$ be a toric blow up at a point. We use the Topological Vertex [AKMV] to prove a higher genus, higher winding, open-closed duality between the toric Calabi-Yau 3-folds $K_X, K_{\widehat{X}}$. For $g \geq 0, w \geq 1$, we show the equality $n_g(K_{\widehat{X}}, \pi^*\beta - wC) = (-1)^g N_{g, (w)}^{LMOV}(K_X/L, \beta)$, where $n_g(K_{\widehat{X}}, \pi^*\beta - wC)$ is the genus-$g$, Gopakumar-Vafa invariant of $K_{\widehat{X}}$ in curve class $\pi^*\beta-wC$, where $\beta \in H_2(X, \mathbb{Z})$ and $C$ is the exceptional curve, and $N_{g, (w)}^{LMOV}(K_X/L, \beta)$ is the genus-$g$, LMOV invariant of an outer Aganagic-Vafa brane $L \subset K_X$ in class $\beta$ and representation $(w)$, or the Young Tableau of a single row with $w$ boxes.
