abstract

Let $X$ be a compact complex Calabi-Yau 4-fold. Under certain assumptions, we define Donaldson-Thomas type deformation invariants ($DT_{4}$ invariants) by studying moduli spaces of solutions to the Donaldson-Thomas equations on $X$. We also study sheaves counting problems on local Calabi-Yau 4-folds. We relate $DT_{4}$ invariants of $K_{Y}$ to the Donaldson-Thomas invariants of the associated Fano 3-fold $Y$. When the Calabi-Yau 4-fold is toric, we adapt the virtual localization formula to define the corresponding equivariant $DT_{4}$ invariants. We also discuss the non-commutative version of $DT_{4}$ invariants for quivers with relations. Finally, we compute $DT_{4}$ invariants for certain Calabi-Yau 4-folds when moduli spaces are smooth and find a $DT_{4}/GW$ correspondence for $X$. Examples of wall-crossing phenomenon in $DT_{4}$ theory are also given.

Defects, nested instantons and comet shaped quivers

hep-th · 2019-07-05 · unverdicted · novelty 7.0

Proposes comet-shaped quiver gauge theories for surface defects with nested instantons in 4D gauge theories on T^2 × T*C_{g,k} and gives conjectural explicit formulae for the virtual equivariant elliptic genus of bundles over nested Hilbert schemes of points on the affine plane.

Modules and generalizations of Joyce vertex algebras

math.AG · 2025-05-30 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

Generalizes Joyce vertex algebras to non-linear enumerative problems and constructs twisted modules in the orthosymplectic case, proposing variants for different enumerative invariants.
