Mariño–Vafa conjecture for triple Hodge integrals
Mariño–Vafa conjecture for triple Hodge integrals
For the Deligne–Mumford moduli space of stable curves , let denote the total Chern polynomial of the Hodge bundle and let be the cotangent-line classes. The triple Hodge integrals are
Let be the generating series of these integrals and the representation-theoretic generating series defined using symmetric-group characters and the quantities . Mariño–Vafa conjecture. One has the identity
The conjecture expresses all-genus, all-marked-point triple Hodge integrals through finite representation-theoretic or Chern–Simons data. In the supplied paper it is subsequently proved via matching cut-and-join equations and the initial value at .
