Abstract: We continue our study of the local Gromov-Witten invariants of curves in Calabi-Yau 3-folds. We define relative invariants for the local theory which give rise to a 1+1-dimensional TQFT taking values in the ring Qt. The associated Frobenius algebra over Qt is semisimple. Consequently, we obtain a structure result for the local invariants. As an easy consequence of our structure formula, we recover the closed formulas for the local invariants in case either the target genus or the degree equals 1.


The authors continue their study of local Gromov-Witten invariants started e.g. in [Geom. Topol. 5, 287--318 (2001; Zbl 1063.14068)]. Relative invariants of the local theory are defined. They give rise to a \((1+1)\) dimensional topological quantum field theory taking values in the ring \(\mathbb Qt\). The associated Frobenius algebra turns out to be semisimple. Structure results for the local invariants are obtained. Closed formulas are given if either the target genus is one or the degree is one.
