We prove a splitting formula that reconstructs the logarithmic Gromov–Witten invariants of simple normal crossing varieties from the punctured Gromov–Witten invariants of their irreducible components, under the assumption of the gluing strata being toric varieties. The formula is based on the punctured Gromov–Witten theory developed by Abramovich, Chen, Gross, and Siebert.

Sheaves of maximal intersection and multiplicities of stable log maps
Abstract A great number of theoretical results are known about log Gromov–Witten invariants (Abramovich and Chen in Asian J Math 18:465–488, 2014; Chen in Ann Math (2) 180:455–521, 2014; Gross and Siebert J Am Math Soc 26: 451–510, 2013), but few calculations are worked out. In this paper we restrict to surfaces and to genus 0 stable log maps of maximal tangency. We ask how various natural components of the moduli space contribute to the log Gromov–Witten invariants. The first such calculation (Gross et al. in Duke Math J 153:297–362, 2010, Proposition 6.1) by Gross–Pandharipande–Siebert deals with multiple covers over rigid curves in the log Calabi–Yau setting. As a natural continuation, in this paper we compute the contributions of non-rigid irreducible curves in the log Calabi–Yau setting and that of the union of two rigid curves in general position. For the former, we construct and study a moduli space of “logarithmic” 1-dimensional sheaves and compare the resulting multiplicity with tropical multiplicity. For the latter, we explicitly describe the components of the moduli space and work out the logarithmic deformation theory in full, which we then compare with the deformation theory of the analogous relative stable maps.

Using the Fredholm setup of Farajzadeh-Tehrani [Peking Math. J. (2023), https://doi.org/10.1007/s42543-023-00069-1], we study genus zero (and higher) relative Gromov-Witten invariants with maximum tangency of symplectic log Calabi-Yau fourfolds. In particular, we give a short proof of Gross [Duke Math. J. 153 (2010), pp. 297–362, Cnj. 6.2] that expresses these invariants in terms of certain integral invariants by considering generic almost complex structures to obtain a geometric count. We also revisit the localization calculation of the multiple-cover contributions in Gross [Prp. 6.1] and recalculate a few terms differently to provide more details and illustrate the computation of deformation/obstruction spaces for maps that have components in a destabilizing (or rubber) component of the target. Finally, we study a higher genus version of these invariants and explain a decomposition of genus one invariants into different contributions.more » « less

In a previous paper (Farajzadeh-Tehrani in Geom Topol 26:989–1075, 2022), for any logarithmic symplectic pair (X, D) of a symplectic manifold X and a simple normal crossings symplectic divisor D, we introduced the notion of log pseudo-holomorphic curve and proved a compactness theorem for the moduli spaces of stable log curves. In this paper, we introduce a natural Fredholm setup for studying the deformation theory of log (and relative) curves. As a result, we obtain a logarithmic analog of the space of Ruan–Tian perturbations for these moduli spaces. For a generic compatible pair of an almost complex structure and a log perturbation term, we prove that the subspace of simple maps in each stratum is cut transversely. Such perturbations enable a geometric construction of Gromov–Witten type invariants for certain semi-positive pairs (X, D) in arbitrary genera. In future works, we will use local perturbations and a gluing theorem to construct log Gromov–Witten invariants of arbitrary such pair (X, D).more » « less

Abstract As announced in Gross and Siebert (in Algebraic geometry: Salt Lake City 2015, Proceedings of Symposia in Pure Mathematics, vol 97, no 2. AMS, Providence, pp 199–230, 2018) in 2016, we construct and prove consistency of the canonical wall structure . This construction starts with a log Calabi–Yau pair ( X , D ) and produces a wall structure, as defined in Gross et al. (Mem. Amer. Math. Soc. 278(1376), 1376, 1–103, 2022). Roughly put, the canonical wall structure is a data structure which encodes an algebro-geometric analogue of counts of Maslov index zero disks. These enumerative invariants are defined in terms of the punctured invariants of Abramovich et al. (Punctured Gromov–Witten invariants, 2020. arXiv:2009.07720v2 [math.AG]). There are then two main theorems of the paper. First, we prove consistency of the canonical wall structure, so that, using the setup of Gross et al. (Mem. Amer. Math. Soc. 278(1376), 1376, 1–103, 2022), the canonical wall structure gives rise to a mirror family. Second, we prove that this mirror family coincides with the intrinsic mirror constructed in Gross and Siebert (Intrinsic mirror symmetry, 2019. arXiv:1909.07649v2 [math.AG]). While the setup of this paper is narrower than that of Gross and Siebert (Intrinsic mirror symmetry, 2019. arXiv:1909.07649v2 [math.AG]), it gives a more detailed description of the mirror.more » « less

null (Ed.)We prove a decomposition formula of logarithmic Gromov–Witten invariants in a degeneration setting. A one-parameter log smooth family $$X \longrightarrow B$$ with singular fibre over $$b_0\in B$$ yields a family $$\mathscr {M}(X/B,\beta ) \longrightarrow B$$ of moduli stacks of stable logarithmic maps. We give a virtual decomposition of the fibre of this family over $$b_0$$ in terms of rigid tropical maps to the tropicalization of $X/B$ . This generalizes one aspect of known results in the case that the fibre $$X_{b_0}$$ is a normal crossings union of two divisors. We exhibit our formulas in explicit examples.more » « less
