Gross, Hacking and Keel have constructed mirrors of log Calabi-Yau surfaces in terms of counts of rational curves. Using q-deformed scattering diagrams defined in terms of higher genus log Gromov-Witten invariants, we construct deformation quantizations of these mirrors and we produce canonical bases of the corresponding noncommutative algebras of functions.
In [15] we established a series of correspondences relating five enumerative theories of log Calabi-Yau surfaces, i.e. pairs (Y, D) with Y a smooth projective complex surface and D = D1 + • • • + D l an anticanonical divisor on Y with each Di smooth and nef. In this paper we explore the generalisation to Y being a smooth Deligne-Mumford stack with projective coarse moduli space of dimension 2, and Di nef Q-Cartier divisors. We consider in particular three infinite families of orbifold log Calabi-Yau surfaces, and for each of them we provide closed form solutions of the maximal contact log Gromov-Witten theory of the pair (Y, D), the local Gromov-Witten theory of the total space of i OY (−Di), and the open Gromov-Witten of toric orbi-branes in a Calabi-Yau 3-orbifold associated to (Y, D). We also consider new examples of BPS integral structures underlying these invariants, and relate them to the Donaldson-Thomas theory of a symmetric quiver specified by (Y, D), and to a class of open/closed BPS invariants.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
