Motivations

Relation to Seiberg-Witten: attachments/Pasted%20image%2020220422095930.png

The idea of the proof is to deform the Seiberg-Witten equations so they get “close” to a Cauchy-Riemann operator on the line bundle of the Chern class \(\varepsilon\). Solutions to the Seiberg-Witten equations then correspond to an almost-holomorphic section of the line bundle, and the zero set of the section is a \(J\)-holomorphic curve representing \(\varepsilon\).

Classical approach: perfect obstruction theory due to Behrend-Fantechi, Li-Tian. In the nonarchimedean setting: use derived algebraic geometry, count curves with K-Theory (quantum K-invariants).

The stack of stable maps is a substack of a derived mapping stack.

The derived module stack \({\mathbf{R}}\mkern 1.5mu\overline{\mkern-1.5muM\mkern-1.5mu}\mkern 1.5mu_{g, n}(X)\) of \(n{\hbox{-}}\)pointed genus \(g\) stable maps into \(X\) is representable by a derived \(k{\hbox{-}}\)analytic stack locally of finite presentation and derived lci.

Relation to FJRW theory

The FJRW theory of \(X\) should be equivalent to the Gromov-Witten theory of \(X_W\) (the Landau-Ginzberg/CY coorespondence).
