| Summary: | © 2018 Elsevier Inc. In analogy with the Gopakumar–Vafa conjecture on CY 3-folds, Klemm and Pandharipande defined GV type invariants on Calabi–Yau 4-folds using Gromov–Witten theory and conjectured their integrality. In this paper, we propose a sheaf-theoretic interpretation of their genus zero invariants using Donaldson–Thomas theory on CY 4-folds. More specifically, we conjecture genus zero GV type invariants are DT4 invariants for one-dimensional stable sheaves on CY 4-folds. Some examples are computed for both compact and non-compact CY 4-folds to support our conjectures. We also propose an equivariant version of the conjectures for local curves and verify them in certain cases. |
