On the $K$-theoretic logarithmic double ramification class

The logarithmic double ramification cycle is the virtual fundamental class of the locus where a line bundle on a family of curves is fiberwise trivial. We construct a K-theoretic logarithmic double ramification class and prove a product formula and a \(\mathrm{GL}_r(\mathbb Z)\)-invariance property. We also give an explicit formula for this class in terms of a Grothendieck polynomial via a novel $K$-theoretic Thom--Porteous formula for vector bundles on algebraic stacks.

Towards a quantum Lefschetz hyperplane theorem in all genera

An effective algorithm of determining Gromov--Witten invariants of smooth hypersurfaces in any genus (subject to a degree bound) from Gromov--Witten invariants of the ambient space is proposed. The Appendix is joint with E. Schulte-Geers.

Quantum flips I: local model

We study analytic continuations of quantum cohomology under simple flips $f: X \dashrightarrow X'$ along the extremal ray quantum variable $q^\ell$. The inverse correspondence $Ψ= [Γ_f]^*$ by the graph closure gives an embedding of Chow motives $[\hat{X}'] \hookrightarrow [\hat{X}]$ which preserves the Poincaré pairing. We construct a deformation $\widehatΨ$ of $Ψ= [Γ_f]^*$ which induces a non-linear embedding $$QH(X') \hookrightarrow QH(X)$$ in the category of $F$-manifolds into the regular integrable loci of $QH(X)$ near $q^\ell = \infty$. This provides examples of functoriality of quantum cohomology beyond $K$-equivalent transformations. In this paper, we focus on the case when $X$ and $X'$ are (projective) local models.

The Log Product Formula in quantum $K$-theory

We prove a formula expressing the $K$-theoretic log Gromov-Witten invariants of a product of log smooth varieties $V \times W$ in terms of the invariants of $V$ and $W$. The proof requires introducing log virtual fundamental classes in $K$-theory and verifying their various functorial properties. We introduce a log version of $K$-theory and prove the formula there as well.

Variations on the theme of quantum Lefschetz

In this companion piece to 1712.03573, some variations on the main results there are sketched. In particular, the recursions in 1712.03573, which we interpreted as the quantum Lefschetz, is reformulated in terms of Givental's quantization formalism, or equivalently, a summation of finitely many graphs. Meanwhile, varieties of modification of the auxilliary spaces (masterspaces) for the fixed point localization are given, leading to different (looking) recursions. There are also some applications of this circle of ideas to derive (apparently) new relations of Gromov--Witten invariants.

On Gromov-Witten theory of projective bundles

Given two equivariant vector bundles over an algebraic GKM manifold with the same equivariant Chern classes, we show that the genus zero equivariant Gromov--Witten theory of their projective bundles are naturally isomorphic.

Towards $A + B$ theory in conifold transitions for Calabi-Yau threefolds

For projective conifold transitions between Calabi-Yau threefolds $X$ and $Y$, with $X$ close to $Y$ in the moduli, we show that the combined information provided by the $A$ model (Gromov--Witten theory in all genera) and $B$ model (variation of Hodge structures) on $X$, linked along the vanishing cycles, determines the corresponding combined information on $Y$. Similar result holds in the reverse direction when linked with the exceptional curves.

Quantum Cohomology under Birational Maps and Transitions

This is an expanded version of the third author's lecture in String-Math 2015 at Sanya. It summarizes some of our works in quantum cohomology. After reviewing the quantum Lefschetz and quantum Leray--Hirsch, we discuss their applications to the functoriality properties under special smooth flops, flips and blow-ups. Finally, for conifold transitions of Calabi--Yau 3-folds, formulations for small resolutions (blow-ups along Weil divisors) are sketched.

Invariance of Quantum Rings under Ordinary Flops I: Quantum corrections and reduction to local models

This is the first of a sequence of papers proving the quantum invariance under ordinary flops over an arbitrary smooth base. In this first part, we determine the defect of the cup product under the canonical correspondence and show that it is corrected by the small quantum product attached to the extremal ray. We then perform various reductions to reduce the problem to the local models. In Part II, we develop a quantum Leray--Hirsch theorem and use it to show that the big quantum cohomology ring is invariant under analytic continuations in the Kähler moduli space for ordinary flops of splitting type. In Part III, together with F. Qu, we remove the splitting condition by developing a quantum splitting principle, and hence solve the problem completely.

The Quantum Orbifold Cohomology of Weighted Projective Spaces

We calculate the small quantum orbifold cohomology of arbitrary weighted projective spaces. We generalize Givental's heuristic argument, which relates small quantum cohomology to S^1-equivariant Floer cohomology of loop space, to weighted projective spaces and use this to conjecture an explicit formula for the small J-function, a generating function for certain genus-zero Gromov-Witten invariants. We prove this conjecture using a method due to Bertram. This provides the first non-trivial example of a family of orbifolds of arbitrary dimension for which the small quantum orbifold cohomology is known. We also obtain formulas for the small J-functions of weighted projective complete intersections satisfying a combinatorial condition; this condition naturally singles out the class of orbifolds with terminal singularities.

Quantum K-theory on flag manifolds, finite-difference Toda lattices and quantum groups

We conjecture that appropriate K-theoretic Gromov-Witten invariants of complex flag manifolds G/B are governed by finite-difference versions of Toda systems constructed in terms of the Langlands-dual quantized universal enveloping algebras U_q(g'). The conjecture is proved in the case of classical flag manifolds of the series A. The proof is based on a refinement of the famous Atiyah-Hirzebruch argument for rigidity of arithmetical genus applied to hyperquot-scheme compactifications of spaces of rational curves in the flag manifolds.

Virtual Fundamental Classes of Zero Loci

Let V be a convex vector bundle over a smooth projective manifold X, and let Y be the subset of X which is the zero locus of a regular section of V. This mostly expository paper discusses a conjecture which relates the virtual fundamental classes of X and Y. Using an argument due to Gathmann, we prove a special case of the conjecture. The paper concludes with a discussion of how our conjecture relates to the mirror theorems in the literature.

Quantum Lefschetz Hyperplane Theorem

The mirror theorem is generalized to any smooth projective variety X. That is, a fundamental relation between the Gromov-Witten invariants of X and Gromov-Witten invariants of complete intersections Y in X is established.
