The Abelian/nonabelian Correspondence and Frobenius Manifolds
نویسنده
چکیده
We propose an approach via Frobenius manifolds to the study (began in [BCK2]) of the relation between rational Gromov-Witten invariants of nonabelian quotients X//G and those of the corresponding “abelianized” quotients X//T, for T a maximal torus in G. The ensuing conjecture expresses the Gromov-Witten potential of X//G in terms of the potential of X//T. We prove this conjecture when the nonabelian quotients are partial flag manifolds.

K-theoretic J-functions of Type a Flag Varieties
The J-function in Gromov-Witten theory is a generating function for one-point genus zero Gromov-Witten invariants with descendants. Here we give formulas for the quantum K-theoretic J-functions of type A flag manifolds. As an application, we prove the quantum K-theoretic J-function version of the abelian-nonabelian correspondence for Grassmannians and products of projective space.
متن کاملA Combinatorial Case of the Abelian-nonabelian Correspondence
The abelian-nonabelian correspondence outlined in [BCFK08] gives a broad conjectural relationship between (twisted) Gromov-Witten invariants of related GIT quotients. This paper proves a case of the correspondence explicitly relating genus zero mpointed Gromov-Witten invariants of Grassmannians Gr(2, n) and products of projective space P ×P. Computation of the twisted Gromov-Witten invariants o...
متن کاملAnomaly Cancellation On G2-Manifolds
Smooth manifolds of G2 holonomy, used to compactify M -theory to four dimensions, give only abelian gauge groups without charged matter multiplets. But singular G2-manifolds can give abelian or nonabelian gauge groups with chiral fermions. We describe the mechanism of anomaly cancellation in these models, using anomaly inflow from the bulk. We also compare the anomaly predictions to what has be...
متن کاملConformal mappings preserving the Einstein tensor of Weyl manifolds
In this paper, we obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for a conformal mapping between two Weyl manifolds to preserve Einstein tensor. Then we prove that some basic curvature tensors of $W_n$ are preserved by such a conformal mapping if and only if the covector field of the mapping is locally a gradient. Also, we obtained the relation between the scalar curvatures of the Weyl manifolds r...
متن کاملThe Hodge filtration on nonabelian cohomology
Whereas usual Hodge theory concerns mainly the usual or abelian cohomology of an algebraic variety—or eventually the rational homotopy theory or nilpotent completion of π1 which are in some sense obtained by extensions—nonabelian Hodge theory concerns the cohomology of a variety with nonabelian coefficients. Because of the basic fact that homotopy groups in higher dimensions are abelian, and si...
