We calculate the refined topological string partition function of the Calabi-Yau threefold which is the total space of the canonical bundle on $\mathbb{P}^2$ (the local $\mathbb{P}^2$). The refined topological vertex formalism can not be directly applied to local $\mathbb{P}^2$ therefore we use the properties of the refined Hopf link to define a new two legged vertex which together with the refined vertex gives the partition function of the local $\mathbb{P}^2$.

The combinatorial formula used in Theorem [ref] is assembled from the rank-two refined-vertex–Nekrasov fixed-point partition identity of Taki and Awata–Kanno [ref] and the local-\(𝔽_1\)-to-local-\(ℙ^2\) transition of Iqbal–Kozçaz [ref] .

The same web diagram specifies the toric Calabi–Yau 3-fold of the compactified M-theory dual to the 5-brane web, and then we calculate the 5d Nekrasov partition function [ref] using the topological string method [ref] known as the topological vertex [ref] through geometric engineering [ref] .

A trick is that when we divide it by partition function of the resolved conifold, namely Z̃_(3)(Q_B, Q̃_1, Q̃_2) = Z_(3)(Q_B^-1, Q̃_1Q_B, Q̃_2Q_B) /ℋ(Q_B^-1)^-1 then the terms with negative power of $Q_B$ disappears [ref] .

Refined Chern-Simons theory has been of recent interest because of the rich structure of the new knot and three-manifold invariants that it computes, and also because of its connection to refined topological string theory and the refined topological vertex [ref] .

Previously, the partition function of refined topological string theory on local Calabi-Yau can be obtained by using the refined topological vertex in the A-model side [ref] [ref] [ref] , or refined holomorphic anomaly equations in the B-model side [ref] [ref] [ref] .

Since the two Schur functions in the summation above have the same argument we can use s_λ(x) s_μ(x)=∑_ηN^η_λ μs_η(x), to write the normalized open amplitude as [equation] Following [ref] , we express the Schur function in terms of Macdonald function to obtain H_η(Q,t,q) = ∑_σU_η σ(q,t)J_σ(Q,t,q) J_σ(Q,t,q) ∑_ν (-Q)^|ν| q^ν^2/2 t^ν^t^2/2 Z_ν(t,q) Z_ν^t(q,t) P_σ(t^-ρq^-ν;q,t), where the $U_η σ(q,t)$ are the previously defined matrices which take Macdonald functions to Schur functions.
