Titel The tautological ring of the moduli space of stable curves is rarely Gorenstein

Datum, Zeit 16. September 2024, 15:30-17:00
Ort ITS
Abstract A central difficulty in the study of the intersection theory of the moduli space of curves is that there may exist tautological classes that are nonzero but intersect trivially with all tautological classes of complementary codimension. I will explain some recent progress on studying such classes by intersecting with classes outside of the tautological ring.

Ort HG G 19.2
Abstract Enumerative geometry counts geometric objects satisfying a list of properties. An important method in the area is to obtain these counts as intersection numbers on a suitable moduli space Mbar. In the talk I explain how logarithmic intersection theory can be used in different examples to define intersection numbers which are independent of the precise choice of this space Mbar. After a discussion of (double) Hurwitz numbers, we'll also see a new class of invariants - called k-leaky double Hurwitz descendants - defined in joint work with Cavalieri and Markwig. I discuss some of their properties, show tropical formulas calculating them and present some questions on their enumerative interpretation.

Ort HG G 19.1
Abstract One can use Bloch's higher Chow groups to compute the usual Chow groups of moduli spaces. This involves first computing the necessary higher Chow groups, and then computing the connecting homomorphism of the localization exact sequence. I will explain general techniques for performing these computations and give examples for the integral Chow groups of moduli spaces of genus 1 curves.

Ort HG G 19.2
Abstract Local curves are an important class of threefolds which are indicative of the general behaviour of curve counting invariants. We give a closed formula for all descendent stable pair invariants of (absolute) local curves and use these to prove structure results conjectured by Pandharipande and Pixton. We then use our results to give a new approach to the Bethe ansatz story in physics/representation theory.

Ort HG G 43
Abstract An Enriques surface is the quotient of a K3 surface by a fixed point free involution. There are many intriguing questions about curve counting on the Enriques surface. After giving an overview, we will zoom in on refined curve counting on the local Enriques surface. We discuss both K-theoretic refinement (following Nekrasov-Okounkov) and motivic refinements (following Kontsevich-Soibelman). In particular, we will see a refinement of the Klemm-Marino formula. This investigation leads to some concrete predictions about the moduli space of stable sheaves on Enriques surfaces.

Abstract Many (partial) CohFTs in the moduli spaces of curves can be canonically lifted to the moduli space of spin structures. This leads to a refined study of these cohomology classes according to the sign (or Arf invariant) of the spin structure. We will review open problems and recent advances on the refined study of several partial CohFTs: Witten’s class, Double Ramification cycles, and strata of differentials.

Titel Quantum spectrum and Gamma structures for flips
Referent:in, Affiliation Prof. Dr. Yefeng Shen, University of Oregon and IHES
Datum, Zeit 18. Oktober 2024, 16:00-17:30
Ort HG G 43
Abstract Quantum spectrum and Gamma structures play key roles in Katzarkov-Kontsevich-Pantev-Yu’s proposal to extract birational invariants from quantum cohomology and Iritani's decomposition theorem for quantum D-modules of blowups. In this talk, we investigate these structures for standard flips in a much simpler setup, by restricting the quantum multiplication to a fiber curve direction. In this setup, we can show that both quantum spectrum and asymptotic behavior can be reduced from the local models, where the small I/J-functions are known explicitly. Using the asymptotic behavior of cohomology-valued Meijer G-functions, we obtain a decomposition of the cohomology of standard flips into asymptotic Gamma classes. This decomposition is compatible with the semi-orthogonal decomposition for standard flips constructed by Bondal-Orlov and Belmans-Fu-Raedschelders. The talk is based on work in progress joint with Mark Shoemaker.

Titel Gopakumar-Vafa invariants of local curves
Referent:in, Affiliation Dr. Naoki Koseki, University of Liverpool
Datum, Zeit 21. Oktober 2024, 17:30-19:00
Ort Zoom
Abstract In the 1990s, two physisists, Gopakumar and Vafa, proposed an ideal way to count curves in a Calabi-Yau threefold, that is conjecturally equivalent to other curve counting theories such as Gromov-Witten theory. It is very recent that Maulik and Toda gave a mathematically rigorous definition of GV invariants. In this talk, I will review a recent progress on the GV theory, including chi-independence for GV invariants on local curves and degree two GW/GV equivalence for some smooth curves with generic normal bundles. This is based on a joint work with T. Kinjo and another work with B. Davison.

Datum, Zeit 25. Oktober 2024, 16:00-17:30
Ort HG G 43
Abstract I will report on joint work with Andrea Brini in which we establish expected properties of the refined Gromov-Witten generating series of local P2 coming from B-model heuristics: modularity, the extended holomorphic anomaly equation, orbifold regularity and the leading order conifold asymptotics. The first three statements generalise results of Lho-Pandharipande and Coates-Iritani while the proof of the last property is new even in the unrefined limit. I will start off explaining why these four features are expected in the first place and will mention some of their consequences. Afterwards I will discuss aspects of their proof mostly focusing on the arguments proving the leading order conifold asymptotics.

Abstract I want to give a survey about the rational cohomology of SL_n Z. This includes recent developments of finding Hopf algebras in the direct sum of all cohomology groups of SL_n Z for all n. I will give a quick overview about Hopf algebras and what this structure implies for the cohomology of SL_n Z. If time permits, I will explain a connection to graph homology.

Datum, Zeit 8. November 2024, 16:00-17:30
Ort HG G 43
Abstract Tetrahedron instantons were recently introduced by Pomoni-Yan-Zhang in string theory, as a way to describe systems of D0-D6 branes with defects. We propose a rigorous geometric interpretation of their work by the point of view of Donaldson-Thomas theory. We will explain how to naturally construct the moduli space of tetrahedron instantons as a Quot scheme, parametrizing quotients of a torsion sheaf over a certain singular threefold, and how to construct a virtual fundamental class in this setting using quiver representations and the recent machinery of Oh-Thomas (which is in principle designed for moduli spaces of sheaves on Calabi-Yau 4-folds). Furthermore, we will show how to formalize mathematically the invariants considered by Pomoni-Yan-Zhang (initially defined via supersymmetric localization in Physics) and how to rigorously compute them, solving some open conjectures. Joint work with Nadir Fasola.

Abstract The adjoint hypersurface of a simple convex polytope is uniquely defined by interpolation conditions. Its defining equation is the numerator of a meromorphic volume form associated to the polytope, called its canonical form. That form has applications in optimization and particle physics. We extend these assertions to amplituhedra in the Grassmannian of lines in three-space. Joint work with Kristian Ranestad and Rainer Sinn.

Datum, Zeit 29. November 2024, 15:00-16:30

Abstract The geometry of moduli spaces of one-dimensional sheaves on the projective plane has attracted a lot of study recently. In this talk, I will give a new calculation of the Betti numbers of the moduli spaces of one-dimensional sheaves on the projective plane using Gromov-Witten invariants of local P^2 and local curves. The new calculation is based on the refined sheaves/GW correspondence established by Bousseau and all genus local/relative correspondence given by Bousseau-Fan-Guo-Wu. It can be used to prove the divisibility property of Poincaré polynomials of moduli spaces of one-dimensional sheaves on projective plane conjectured by Choi-van Garrel-Katz-Takahashi, and can also be used to recover the asymptotic behaviour of the Betti numbers established by Yuan. This is a work in progress with Shuai Guo.
