Gromov–Witten/Donaldson–Thomas correspondence for logarithmic Calabi–Yau 3-folds

Let X\bold X be a logarithmic Calabi–Yau 3-fold, let L\mathcal L be the associated holomorphic lagrangian correspondence, and let ZGW(X)Z_{GW}(\bold X)^\circ and ZPT(X)Z_{PT}(\bold X) be the Gromov–Witten and stable-pair partition functions. For contact data p\mathbf p and curve class β\beta, let Δp\Delta_{\mathbf p} be the corresponding lagrangian cycle and let \star denote composition of lagrangian correspondences. Let qq and \hbar satisfy

q12=iei/2.q^{\frac 12}=ie^{i\hbar/2}.

Gromov–Witten/Donaldson–Thomas correspondence conjecture. With this change of variables,

ZGW(X)=LZPT(X),LZGW(X)=ZPT(X).Z_{GW}(\bold X)^\circ =\mathcal L\star Z_{PT}(\bold X),\qquad \mathcal L^\dagger\star Z_{GW}(\bold X)^\circ =Z_{PT}(\bold X).

In particular,

ZGW(X)β,p=(vip(v)(v1))ΔpD[β]ZPT(X)β.Z_{GW}(\bold X)^\circ _{\beta,\mathbf p}=\left(\prod_v i^{\mathbf p(v)(|v|-1)}\right)\Delta_{\mathbf p}\star_{D^{[\beta]}}Z_{PT}(\bold X)_\beta.

The claim is the logarithmic version of the Gromov–Witten/Donaldson–Thomas correspondence and is intended to encode Gromov–Witten invariants through the canonical holomorphic lagrangian correspondence. The supplied status evidence says that the surrounding integrality conjecture is false without an additional contact-data hypothesis; it does not directly resolve this correspondence claim.
