Quantum McKay correspondence for disc invariants of toric Calabi-Yau 3-orbifolds (Q2256568): Difference between revisions

The paper under review announces a method for solving a variation of the crepant resolution conjecture called the quantum McKay correspondence in the context of the disc invariants of the effective outer legs in the toric Calabi-Yau threefolds. The authors then establish the conjecture for the toric orbifold \([\mathbb{C}^3/\mathbb{Z}_5(1, 1, 3)]\) and its toric crepant resolution. Inspired from the phase change phenomena in string theory, the main idea is to realize the given Calabi-Yau 3-orbifold and its toric crepant resolution as symplectic reductions of the same system of charge vectors. In this way, one can put the toric Calabi-Yau 3-orbifold and its toric crepant resolution in the same family. One can then use the charge vectors to compute genus zero closed Gromov-Witten invariants as well as the disc invariants with respect to Aganagic-Vafa branes, which are the open Gromov-Witten invariants as proposed by Brini and Cavalieri. The paper under review also gives an enumerative explanation to the integrality of open-closed mirror maps in terms of Ooguri-Vafa invariants.
