The Gromov–Witten invariant energy-bound conjecture

About 10 years old · traced to

Let (X,ω)(X,\omega) be a compact symplectic manifold and let g∈Zg\in\mathbb Z. For fixed classes H1,…,Hk∈H∗(X)H_1,\ldots,H_k\in H^*(X), let ⟨τb1Hc1,…,τbNHcN⟩g,βX\langle\tau_{b_1}H_{c_1},\ldots,\tau_{b_N}H_{c_N}\rangle^X_{g,\beta} denote the descendant Gromov–Witten invariant, where bs∈Z≥0b_s\in\mathbb Z^{\ge0} and cs∈{1,…,k}c_s\in\{1,\ldots,k\}. The Gromov–Witten invariant energy-bound conjecture. There exists CX,g∈R+C_{X,g}\in\mathbb R^+ such that

∣b1! ⟨τb1Hc1,…,bN! τbNHcN⟩g,βXN!∣≤CX,g⟨ω,β⟩+N\left|\frac{b_1!\,\langle\tau_{b_1}H_{c_1},\ldots,b_N!\,\tau_{b_N}H_{c_N}\rangle^X_{g,\beta}}{N!}\right|\le C_{X,g}^{\langle\omega,\beta\rangle+N}

for all β∈H2(X)\beta\in H_2(X), N,bs∈Z≥0N,b_s\in\mathbb Z^{\ge0}, and cs∈{1,…,k}c_s\in\{1,\ldots,k\}. Such bounds would control descendant invariants uniformly in the curve energy and number of insertions. The source notes that the conjecture is known in genus zero for all projective spaces and in arbitrary genus in substantial settings, but remains open in the stated generality.
