Harvey–Moore modularity conjecture for fiberwise rational curves
Harvey–Moore modularity conjecture for fiberwise rational curves
Let be a tamed -fibered Calabi–Yau threefold, and let denote the virtual number of rational curves in the fiberwise class . Suppose that the fiberwise intersection lattice
is unimodular. Write for the self-intersection number along the fiber, and set for classes with this self-intersection. Harvey–Moore's modularity conjecture. The number depends on only through , and the generating function
is the -expansion of an explicitly constructed modular form. Harvey and Moore's prediction comes from type –heterotic duality and relates curve counts on -fibered Calabi–Yau threefolds to Borcherds-type automorphic products. The source gives no resolution of this conjecture; its status is therefore open.
