An example of Crepant Resolution Conjecture in two steps (Q376085): Difference between revisions

The Crepant Resolution Conjecture asserts that Gromov-Witten theory of a Gorenstein orbifold and its crepant resolutions are related. The paper under review provides a refinement of the Crepant Resolution Conjecture formulated by Bryan-Graber and provides an explicit evidence for the orbifold \([\mathbb{C}^2/\mathbb{Z}_3]\) whose coarse moduli space is the \(A_2\) surface singularity. The refinement of the conjecture is obtained by extending the statement of the conjecture so that it also considers the partial crepant resolutions of a given orbifold satisfying hard Lefschetz condition. As for the evidence, the partial crepant resolution considered is \(\mathcal{Z}\) which is the canonical bundle of the projective line \(\mathbb{P}(1,2)\). The generating function of the genus 0 extended Gromov-Witten invariants of \(\mathcal{Z}\) is explicitly computed by means of the localization technique. Then by means of an explicit change of variables this generating function is related to the generating function of genus 0 extended Gromov-Witten invariants of \([\mathbb{C}^2/\mathbb{Z}_3]\) which was obtained by Bryan-Graber-Pandharipande.
