A remark on the Gromov-Witten-Welschinger invariants of \(\mathbb{C}P^3\# \overline{\mathbb{C}P}^{3_*}\) (Q2192137)

The author computes the Welschinger invariant of the blown up projective space \(Y:=\mathbb{P}^3(\mathrm{pt})\) in terms of those of the blown up quadric \(Q:=(\mathbb{P}^1\times\mathbb{P}^1)(\mathrm{pt})\). The principal result states that, for any odd integer \(d\ge0\), even integer \(0\le k\le d\), and integer \(0\le s\le d-k/2-1\), one has \[ W_Y(d[l]-k[e],s)=\sum_{a+b=d,\ 0\le a\le b} (-1)^{a+k/2}(d-2a)W_Q(a[l_1]+b[l_2]-k[e],s), \] where \(W_X(c,s)\) is the Welschinger invariant counting real curves in \(X\) in the class \(c\in H_1(X)\) passing through an appropriate generic real collection of points of which \(s\) pairs are complex conjugate. The generators for the homology groups are a line \(l\subset Y\), generatrices \(l_1,l_2\subset Q\), and (a line in) the exceptional divisor \(e\). The author notes that his approach would not work for \(k\) even. There also is a similar relation for the Gromov-Witten invariants. The principal tool is a generalization of the approach by \textit{E. Brugallé} and \textit{P. Georgieva} [Math. Ann. 365, No. 1--2, 363--380 (2016; Zbl 1417.14008)].
