The multiple-cover formula for quotient invariants of abelian threefolds

Let XX be an abelian threefold, and let Ng,(d1,d2,d3)\mathsf{N}_{g,(d_1,d_2,d_3)} denote its reduced quotient Gromov–Witten invariant for a curve class of type (d1,d2,d3)(d_1,d_2,d_3). Define

n(d1,d2,d3,k)=δG(d1,d2,d3,k)δ2,\mathsf{n}(d_1,d_2,d_3,k)=\sum_{\delta\mid G(d_1,d_2,d_3,k)}\delta^2,

where

G(d1,d2,d3,k)=gcd(k,d1,d2,d3,d1d2k,d1d3k,d2d3k,d1d2d3k2).G(d_1,d_2,d_3,k)=\gcd\left(k,d_1,d_2,d_3,\frac{d_1d_2}{k},\frac{d_1d_3}{k},\frac{d_2d_3}{k},\frac{d_1d_2d_3}{k^2}\right).

Multiple-cover formula. For all g2g\geq2, d1,d2>0d_1,d_2>0, and d30d_3\geq0,

Ng,(d1,d2,d3)=kn(d1,d2,d3,k)k2g3Ng,(1,1,d1d2d3k2),\mathsf{N}_{g,(d_1,d_2,d_3)}=\sum_k\mathsf{n}(d_1,d_2,d_3,k)k^{2g-3}\mathsf{N}_{g,\left(1,1,\frac{d_1d_2d_3}{k^2}\right)},

where kk runs over all divisors of gcd(d1d2,d1d3,d2d3)\gcd(d_1d_2,d_1d_3,d_2d_3) such that k2k^2 divides d1d2d3d_1d_2d_3.

This conjecture gives a uniform imprimitive-class formula, reducing all quotient invariants to classes of type (1,1,)(1,1,*). Its shape is motivated by earlier physics predictions, but the source notes that those predictions do not match these invariants.
