GW/PT correspondence for Calabi–Yau threefolds

About 3 years old · traced to

Let MM be a Calabi–Yau threefold, and let β\beta be a nonzero curve class in MM. The symbols ZGW′⁡(M;u)β\operatorname{Z_{GW}^{\prime}}(M;u)_\beta and ZPT⁡(M;q)β\operatorname{Z_{PT}}(M;q)_\beta denote the reduced Gromov–Witten and Pandharipande–Thomas partition functions in class β\beta. GW/PT correspondence. Under the variable change −q=eiu-q=e^{iu}, one has

ZGW′⁡(M;u)β=ZPT⁡(M;q)β.\operatorname{Z_{GW}^{\prime}}(M;u)_\beta=\operatorname{Z_{PT}}(M;q)_\beta.

This is the descendent-free GW/PT correspondence for Calabi–Yau threefolds; the DT/PT correspondence is known, while the GW/PT correspondence is the conjectural equivalence of the remaining curve-counting theories.
