Integrality structures in topological strings and quantum 2-functions
Abstract In this article, we first prove the integrality of an explicit disc counting formula obtained by Panfil and Sulkowski for a class of toric Calabi-Yau manifolds named generalized conifolds. Then, motivated by the integrality structures in open topological string theory, we introduce a mathem...

description | Abstract In this article, we first prove the integrality of an explicit disc counting formula obtained by Panfil and Sulkowski for a class of toric Calabi-Yau manifolds named generalized conifolds. Then, motivated by the integrality structures in open topological string theory, we introduce a mathematical notion of “quantum 2-function” which can be viewed as the quantization of the notion of “2-function” introduced by Schwarz, Vologod-sky and Walcher. Finally, we provide a basic example of quantum 2-function and discuss the quantization of 2-functions. |
