Abstract: |
I will introduce twisted Gromov-Witten invariants of a compact, complex orbifold X: they are defined by capping the virtual fundamental class(es) of the moduli spaces of stable maps X_{g,n,d} with multiplicative characteristic classes of push-forwards of certain "tautological" bundles along the universal curve. I will express twisted GW invariants of X in terms of untwisted (i.e. usual GW invariants) ones using Givental's Lagrangian cone formalism. This generalizes previous work of Coates-Givental and Tseng. |
