Lagrangians for the Gopakumar–Vafa conjecture
نویسندگان
چکیده
This article explains how to construct immersed Lagrangian submanifolds in C2 that are asymptotic at large distance from the origin to a given braid in the 3–sphere. The self-intersections of the Lagrangians are related to the crossings of the braid. These Lagrangians are then used to construct immersed Lagrangians in the vector bundle O(−1)⊕ O(−1) over the Riemann sphere which are asymptotic at large distance from the zero section to braids.

A Simple Proof of Gopakumar–vafa Conjecture for Local Toric Calabi-yau Manifolds
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.
متن کاملThe 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 کاملConormal bundles to knots and the Gopakumar - Vafa conjecture ∗ †
We offer a new construction of Lagrangian submanifolds for the GopakumarVafa conjecture relating the Chern-Simons theory on the 3-sphere and the GromovWitten theory on the resolved conifold. Given a knot in the 3-sphere its conormal bundle is perturbed to disconnect it from the zero section and then pulled through the conifold transition. The construction produces totally real submanifolds of t...
متن کاملPole Structure and Gopakumar–vafa Conjecture
We show that the free energy of the topological string admits a certain pole structure by using the operator formalism. Combined with the results of Peng that proved the integrality, this gives a combinatoric proof of the Gopakumar–Vafa conjecture.
