A formula equating open and closed Gromov-Witten invariants and its applications to mirror symmetry (1006.3827v3)
Published 19 Jun 2010 in math.SG and math.AG
Abstract: We prove that open Gromov-Witten invariants for semi-Fano toric manifolds of the form $X=\mathbb{P}(K_Y\oplus\mathcal{O}_Y)$, where $Y$ is a toric Fano manifold, are equal to certain 1-pointed closed Gromov-Witten invariants of $X$. As applications, we compute the mirror superpotentials for these manifolds. In particular, this gives a simple proof for the formula of the mirror superpotential for the Hirzebruch surface $\mathbb{F}_2$.
