Variations of BPS structure and a large rank limit

We study a class of flat bundles, of finite rank $N$, which arise naturally from the Donaldson-Thomas theory of a Calabi-Yau threefold $X$ via the notion of a variation of BPS structure. We prove that in a large $N$ limit their flat sections converge to the solutions to certain infinite dimensional Riemann-Hilbert problems recently found by Bridgeland. In particular this implies an expression for the positive degree, genus $0$ Gopakumar-Vafa contribution to the Gromov-Witten partition function of $X$ in terms of solutions to confluent hypergeometric differential equations.

Framed symplectic sheaves on surfaces

A framed symplectic sheaf on a smooth projective surface $X$ is a torsion-free sheaf $E$ together with a trivialization on a divisor $D\subseteq X$ and a morphism $Λ^{2}E\rightarrow\mathcal{O}_{X}$ satisfying some additional conditions. We construct a moduli space for framed symplectic sheaves on a surface, and present a detailed study for $X=\mathbb{P}_{\mathbb{C}}^{2}$. In this case, the moduli space is irreducible and admits an ADHM-type description and a birational proper map into the space of framed symplectic ideal instantons.
