We define a new family of open Gromov-Witten type invariants based on intersection theory on the moduli space of pseudoholomorphic curves of arbitrary genus with boundary in a Lagrangian submanifold. We assume the Lagrangian submanifold arises as the fixed points of an anti-symplectic involution and has dimension 2 or 3. In the strongly semi-positive genus 0 case, the new invariants coincide with Welschinger's invariant counts of real pseudoholomorphic curves. Furthermore, we calculate the new…

Counting pseudo-holomorphic discs in Calabi-Yau 3-holds
n this paper we define an invariant of a pair of 6 dimensional symplectic %optional manifold with vanishing 1st Chern class and its Lagrangian submanifold with vanishing Maslov index. This invariant…
Counting genus zero real curves in symplectic manifolds
There are two types of $J$-holomorphic spheres in a symplectic manifold invariant under an anti-symplectic involution: those that have a fixed point locus and those that do not. The former are…

Gromov-Witten invariants in dimension four
Given a closed orientable Lagrangian surface L in a closed symplectic four-manifold (X,ω) together with a relative homology class d ∈ H2(X,L;Z) with vanishing boundary in H1(L;Z), we prove that the…

On the counting of holomorphic discs in toric Fano manifolds
Open Gromov-Witten invariants in general are not well-defined. We discuss in detail the enumerative numbers of the Clifford torus $T^2$ in $\CP^2$. For cyclic A-infinity algebras, we show that…
ON MODULI SPACES OF REAL CURVES IN SYMPLECTIC MANIFOLDS
Given a symplectic manifold (X,ω), an almost complex structure J , and an antisymplectic involution φ, we study genus zero real J-holomorphic curves in X. There are two types of such curves, those…
Notes on genus one real Gromov-Witten invariants
In this paper, we propose a definition of genus one real Gromov-Witten invariants for certain symplectic manifolds with real a structure, including Calabi-Yau threefolds, and use equivariant…
The orientability problem in open Gromov–Witten theory
We give an explicit formula for the holonomy of the orientation bundle of a family of real Cauchy‐Riemann operators. A special case of this formula resolves the orientability question for spaces of…
Relative frames on J-holomorphic curves
The aim of this work is to prove that any non-constant J-holomorphic disc with its boundary in a given Lagrangian submanifold can be decomposed in homology into a sum of finitely many J-holomorphic…

On genericity for holomorphic curves in four-dimensional almost-complex manifolds
We consider spaces of immersed (pseudo-)holomorphic curves in an almost complex manifold of dimension four. We assume that they are either closed or compact with boundary in a fixed totally real…
Invariants of real symplectic 4-manifolds and lower bounds in real enumerative geometry
We first build the moduli spaces of real rational pseudo-holomorphic curves in a given real symplectic 4-manifold. Then, following the approach of Gromov and Witten [3, 19, 11], we define invariants…
Virtual moduli cycles and Gromov-Witten invariants of algebraic varieties
We introduce a method of constructing the virtual cycle of any scheme associated with a tangent-obstruction complex. We apply this method to constructing the virtual moduli cycle of the moduli of…

In this note we prove a simple relation between the mean curvature form, symplectic area, and the Maslov class of a Lagrangian immersion in a K\"ahler-Einstein manifold. An immediate consequence is…
Spinor states of real rational curves in real algebraic convex 3-manifolds and enumerative invariants
Let X be a real algebraic convex 3-manifold whose real part is equipped with a Pin i structure. We show that every irreducible real rational curve with non-empty real part has a canonical spinor…

Pseudo holomorphic curves in symplectic manifolds
Definitions. A parametrized (pseudo holomorphic) J-curve in an almost complex manifold (IS, J) is a holomorphic map of a Riemann surface into Is, say f : (S, J3 ~(V, J). The image C=f(S)C V is called…
