A mathematical theory of the topological vertex
- Jun Li, Chiu-Chu Melissa Liu, Kefeng Liu, Jian Zhou
- Mathematics
- 31 August 2004
We have developed a mathematical theory of the topological vertex--a theory that was original proposed by M. Aganagic, A. Klemm, M. Marino, and C. Vafa in hep-th/0305132 on effectively computing…
Topological string partition functions as equivariant indices
- Jun Li, Kefeng Liu, Jian Zhou
- Mathematics
- 4 December 2004
We propose to use the identification of topological string partition functions as equivariant indices on framed moduli spaces of instantons to study the Gopakumar-Vafa conjecture for some local…

We present an explicit formula for Witten-Kontsevich tau-function.
A formula of two-partition Hodge integrals
- Chiu-Chu Melissa Liu, Kefeng Liu, Jian Zhou
- Mathematics
- 17 October 2003
JMg,n where tpi = ci(L?) is the first Chern class of L?, and Xj = Cj(E) is the j-th Chern class of the Hodge bundle. The study of Hodge integrals is an important part of intersection theory on Mg,n>…
Emergent Geometry and Mirror Symmetry of A Point
- Jian Zhou
- Physics
- 7 July 2015
By considering the partition function of the topological 2D gravity, a conformal field theory on the Airy curve emerges as the mirror theory of Gromov-Witten theory of a point. In particular, a…
Local Mirror Symmetry for One-Legged Topological Vertex
- Jian Zhou
- Mathematics
- 22 October 2009
We prove the Bouchard-Mari\~no Conjecture for the framed one-legged topological vertex by deriving the Eynard-Orantin type recursion relations from the cut-and-join equation satisfied by the relevant…
A Conjecture on Hodge Integrals
- Jian Zhou
- Mathematics
- 18 October 2003
We propose a conjectural formula expressing the generating series of some Hodge integrals in terms of representation theory of Kac-Moody algebras. Such generating series appear in calculations of…
Orbifold Hodge numbers of the wreath product orbifolds
- Weiqiang Wang, Jian Zhou
- Mathematics
- 12 May 2000
Curve counting and instanton counting
- Jian Zhou
- Mathematics
- 14 November 2003
We prove some combinatorial results required for the proof of the following conjecture of Nekrasov: The generating function of closed string invariants in local Calabi-Yau geometries obtained by…
A Proof of a Conjecture of Marino-Vafa on Hodge Integrals
- Chiu-Chu Melissa Liu, Kefeng Liu, Jian Zhou
- Mathematics
- 17 June 2003
We prove a remarkable formula for Hodge integrals conjectured by Marino and Vafa based on large N duality, using functorial virtual localization on certain moduli spaces of relative stable morphisms.
