The theory of virtual fundamental class defines important invariants such as the Gromov–Witten and the Donaldson– Thomas invariants. It has been generalized to the cosection localized virtual cycle which has applications in Seiberg– Witten, Fan–Jarvis–Ruan–Witten and other invariants. In this paper, we prove the formulas of virtual pullback, torus localization and wall crossing for cosection localized virtual cycles.

Given a smooth projective variety X and a smooth divisor D\subset X. We study relative Gromov-Witten invariants of (X,D) and the corresponding orbifold Gromov-Witten invariants of the r-th root stack X_{D,r}. For sufficiently large r, we prove that orbifold Gromov- Witten invariants of X_{D,r} are polynomials in r. Moreover, higher genus relative Gromov-Witten invariants of (X,D) are exactly the constant terms of the corresponding higher genus orbifold Gromov-Witten invari- ants of X_{D,r}. We also provide a new proof for the equality between genus zero relative and orbifold Gromov-Witten invariants, originally proved by Abramovich-Cadman-Wise. When r is sufficiently large and X=C is a curve, we prove that stationary relative invariants of C are equal to the stationary orbifold invariants in all genera.

We study the geometry of the p‑adic analogues of the complex analytic period spaces first introduced by Griffiths. More precisely, we prove the Fargues–Rapoport conjecture for p‑adic period domains: for a reductive group G over a p‑adic field and a minuscule cocharacter μ of G, the weakly admissible locus coincides with the admissible one if and only if the Kottwitz set B(G,μ) is fully Hodge–Newton decomposable.

In this paper we give a proposal for mirrors to (0,2) supersymmetric gauged linear sigma models (GLSMs), for those (0,2) GLSMs which are deformations of (2,2) GLSMs. Specifically, we propose a construction of (0,2) mirrors for (0,2) GLSMs with E terms that are linear and diagonal, reducing to both the Hori-Vafa prescription as well as a recent (2,2) nonabelian mirrors proposal on the (2,2) locus. For the special case of abelian (0,2) GLSMs, two of the authors have previously proposed a systematic construction, which is both simplified and generalized by the proposal here.
