Cao–Maulik–Toda Katz/GV conjecture for one-dimensional sheaves on Calabi–Yau fourfolds

Let XX be a Calabi–Yau 44-fold and let M1(X,β)M_1(X,\beta) be the moduli scheme of one-dimensional stable sheaves FF with [F]=βH2(X,Z)[F]=\beta\in H_2(X,\mathbb Z) and χ(F)=1\chi(F)=1. Let [M1(X,β)]vir[M_1(X,\beta)]^{\mathrm{vir}} be its virtual class. For γH4(X,Z)\gamma\in H^4(X,\mathbb Z), define

τ(γ)=(πM)(πXγch3(F)),\tau(\gamma)=(\pi_M)_*(\pi_X^*\gamma\cup\operatorname{ch}_3(\mathbb F)),

where F\mathbb F is the universal sheaf and πX,πM\pi_X,\pi_M are the projections from X×M1(X,β)X\times M_1(X,\beta). Cao–Maulik–Toda Katz/GV conjecture. For a suitable choice of orientations,

[M1(X,β)]virτ(γ)=n0,β(γ),\int_{[M_1(X,\beta)]^{\mathrm{vir}}}\tau(\gamma)=n_{0,\beta}(\gamma),

where n0,β(γ)n_{0,\beta}(\gamma) is the genus 00 Gopakumar–Vafa type invariant.

This is proposed as a sheaf-theoretic analogue of the Katz/GV conjecture for Calabi–Yau fourfolds. The source gives examples and comparisons supporting it, but states it as conjectural.
