We prove Gopakumar-Vafa conjecture for local toric CalabiYau manifolds. It is also proved that the local Goparkumar-Vafa invariants of a given class at large genus vanish.

The Gopakumar-vafa Formula for Symplectic Manifolds
The Gopakumar-Vafa conjecture predicts that the Gromov-Witten invariants of a CalabiYau 3-fold can be canonically expressed in terms of integer invariants called BPS numbers. Using the methods of symplectic Gromov-Witten theory, we prove that the Gopakumar-Vafa conjecture holds for any symplectic Calabi-Yau 6-manifold, and hence for Calabi-Yau 3-folds. The results extend to all symplectic 6-man...
متن کاملIntegrality of Gopakumar–vafa Invariants of Toric Calabi–yau Threefolds
The Gopakumar–Vafa invariant is a number defined as certain linear combination of the Gromov–Witten invariants. We prove that the GV invariants of the toric Calabi–Yau threefold are integers and that the invariants at high genera vanish. The proof of the integrality is the elementary number theory and that of the vanishing uses the operator formalism and the exponential formula.
متن کاملNew Exact Quantization Condition for Toric Calabi-Yau Geometries.
We propose a new exact quantization condition for a class of quantum mechanical systems derived from local toric Calabi-Yau threefolds. Our proposal includes all contributions to the energy spectrum which are nonperturbative in the Planck constant, and is much simpler than the available quantization condition in the literature. We check that our proposal is consistent with previous works and im...
متن کاملTopological Strings, Instantons and Asymptotic Forms of Gopakumar–Vafa Invariants
We calculate the topological string amplitudes of Calabi–Yau toric threefolds corresponding to 4D, N = 2 SU(2) gauge theory with Nf = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 fundamental hypermultiplets by using the method of the geometric transition and show that they reproduce Nekrasov’s formulas for instanton counting. We also determine the asymptotic forms of the Gopakumar–Vafa invariants of the Calabi–Yau threefolds...
متن کاملTopological Quantum Field Theory for Calabi-Yau threefolds and G2-manifolds
In the past two decades we have witnessed many fruitful interactions between mathematics and physics. One example is in the Donaldson-Floer theory for oriented four manifolds. Physical considerations lead to the discovery of the Seiberg-Witten theory which has profound impact to our understandings of four manifolds. Another example is in the mirror symmetry for Calabi-Yau manifolds. This dualit...
