The relative GW/PT correspondence for elliptic-surface geometries

Let SS be an elliptic surface, let CC be a curve of genus hh, and let SzS_z denote the specified relative divisors in S×CS\times C. For curve data (β,n)(\beta,n), insertions λ1,,λN\lambda_1,\ldots,\lambda_N, and descendent insertions i=1rchki(γi)\prod_{i=1}^{r}{\mathrm{ch}}_{k_i}(\gamma_i), let ZPT,(β,n)(S×C,Sz)Z^{(S\times C,S_z)}_{\mathsf{PT},(\beta,n)} and ZGW,(β,n)(S×C,Sz)Z^{(S\times C,S_z)}_{\mathsf{GW},(\beta,n)} be the corresponding relative Pandharipande–Thomas and Gromov–Witten partition functions. The barred descendent insertion i=1rchki(γi)\overline{\prod_{i=1}^{r}{\mathrm{ch}}_{k_i}(\gamma_i)} denotes the result of applying a universal correspondence matrix. The relative GW/PT correspondence. The PT partition function is the expansion of a rational function in pp, and after the variable change p=ezp=e^z one has

ZPT,(β,n)(S×C,Sz)(λ1,,λNi=1rchki(γi))=ZGW,(β,n)(S×C,Sz)(λ1,,λNi=1rchki(γi)).Z^{(S \times C, S_z)}_{\mathsf{PT}, (\beta,n)}\left( \lambda_1, \ldots, \lambda_N \mid \prod_{i=1}^{r} {\mathrm{ch}}_{k_i}(\gamma_i) \right)=Z^{(S \times C, S_z)}_{\mathsf{GW}, (\beta,n)}\left( \lambda_1, \ldots, \lambda_N \mid \overline{\prod_{i=1}^{r} {\mathrm{ch}}_{k_i}(\gamma_i)} \right).

This is the relative version of the GW/PT correspondence, relating curve-counting theories after a universal transformation of descendent insertions. The supplied text gives no resolution status or evidence beyond presenting the relation as conjectural.
