    There is a well-known degeneration operation to decompose a symplectic manifold \(X\) into \(X_1\cup_Z X_2\), a union of \(X_1\), \(X_2\) along a common divisor \(Z\). This gives us the degeneration formula to compute the Gromov-Witten invariants inductively, by computing the relative Gromov-Witten invariants of the pair \((X,Z)\). \textit{D. Maulik} and \textit{R. Pandharipande} [Topology 45, No. 5, 887--918 (2006; Zbl 1112.14065)] systematically studied the degeneration formula of Gromov-Witten invariant for the degeneration \(X\to X\cup_Z P_Z\), where \(P_Z\) is the projective closure of the normal bundle \(N_Z\). They found a correspondence that the absolute and relative Gromov-Witten invariants determine each other. In the paper under review, the authors introduce the concept of positive symplectic divisor, under this positive condition, the authors establish a much stronger correspondence between absolute and relative Gromov-Witten invariants.
