MNOP rationality and DT/GW correspondence conjecture

Let XX be a smooth projective Calabi–Yau threefold. For a curve class ββ\beta\beta and the rank-one Donaldson–Thomas series Iβ(X)I_\beta(X), let I0(X)I_0(X) denote the degree-zero series, and let GWg,β(X)\mathrm{GW}_{g,\beta}(X) denote the Gromov–Witten invariant in genus gg and class β\beta. MNOP conjecture. (i) The quotient series Iβ(X)/I0(X)I_{\beta}(X)/I_0(X) is the Laurent expansion of a rational function of qq, invariant under qβ1/qq\beta 1/q. (ii) After the variable change q=eiclambdaq=-e^{iclambda}, one has

β0Iβ(X)I0(X)tβ=exp(g0,β>0GWg,β(X)λ2g2tβ).\sum_{\beta \ge 0} \frac{I_{\beta}(X)}{I_0(X)}t^{\beta} = \exp\left( \sum_{g\ge 0, \beta>0} \mathrm{GW}_{g, \beta}(X)\lambda^{2g-2} t^{\beta} \right).

The rationality part is stated in the paper as proved, while the DT/GW generating-series identity is the associated correspondence motivating the conjecture; its precise resolution is not established by the supplied excerpt.
