We have developed a mathematical theory of the topological vertexa theory that was originally proposed by M Aganagic, A Klemm, M Mario and C Vafa on effectively computing GromovWitten invariants of smooth toric CalabiYau threefolds derived from duality between open string theory of smooth CalabiYau threefolds and ChernSimons theory on three-manifolds.

We discuss the Kodaira problem for uniruled Kähler spaces. Building on a construction due to Voisin, we give an example of a uniruled Kähler space X such that every run of the K_X-MMP immediately terminates with a Mori fibre space, yet X does not admit an algebraic approximation. Our example also shows that for a Mori fibration, approximability of the base does not imply approximability of the total space.

In this article we provide a proof of the Iitaka Cnm conjecture for algebraic fiber spaces over tori.

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.
