Motivic Donaldson-Thomas invariants of the conifold and the refined topological vertex (Q436141): Difference between revisions

The authors study the motivic refinement of Donaldson-Thomas theory and related enumerative theories associated to the local conifold given by the total space of the rank two vector bundle \(O(-1)\oplus O(-1)\) over the projective line \(\mathbb P^1\). The main result is the computation of the generating series of the motivic classes of of vanishing cycles of the conifold potential. The answer is a product formula whose factors depend on the position of the stability vector.
