 Mathematics , 2009, Abstract: In [LP] the authors defined symplectic "Local Gromov-Witten invariants" associated to spin curves and showed that the GW invariants of a Kahler surface X with p_g>0 are a sum of such local GW invariants. This paper describes how the local GW invariants arise from an obstruction bundle (in the sense of Taubes) over the space of stable maps into curves. Together with the results of [LP], this reduces the calculation of the GW invariants of complex surfaces to computations in the GW theory of curves.
 Mathematics , 2005, Abstract: This article describes the use of symplectic cut-and-paste methods to compute Gromov-Witten invariants. Our focus is on recent advances extending these methods to Kahler surfaces with geometric genus p_g>0, for which the usual GW invariants vanish for most homology classes. This involves extending the Splitting Formula and the Symplectic Sum Formula to the family GW invariants introduced by the first author. We present applications to the invariants of elliptic surfaces and to the Yau-Zaslow Conjecture. In both cases the results agree with the conjectures of algebraic geometers and yield a proof, to appear in [LL1], of previously unproved cases of the Yau-Zaslow Conjecture.
 Mathematics , 2006, Abstract: We prove a structure theorem for the Gromov-Witten invariants of compact Kahler surfaces with geometric genus $p_g>0$. Under the technical assumption that there is a canonical divisor that is a disjoint union of smooth components, the theorem shows that the GW invariants are universal functions determined by the genus of this canonical divisor components and the holomorphic Euler characteristic of the surface. We compute special cases of these universal functions.
 Olguta Buse Mathematics , 2001, Abstract: We study the symplectomorphism groups $G_{\lambda}=Symp_0(M,\omega_{\lambda})$ of an arbitrary closed manifold M equipped with a 1-parameter family of symplectic forms $\omega_{\lambda}$ with variable cohomology class. We show that the existence of nontrivial elements in $\pi_*({\cal A},{\cal A}')$, where $({\cal A},{\cal A}')$ is a suitable pair of spaces of almost complex structures, implies the exiarxiv.org stence of families of nontrivial elements in $\pi_{*-i}G_{\lambda}$, for $i=1$ or 2. Suitable parametric Gromov Witten invariants detect nontrivial elements in $\pi_*({\cal A},{\cal A}')$. By looking at certain resolutions of quotient singularities we investigate the situation $(M,\omega_{\lambda})= (S^2 \times S^2 \times X,\sigma_F \oplus \lambda \sigma_B \oplus \omega_{st})$, with $(X,\omega_{st})$ an arbitrary symplectic manifold. We find families of nontrivial elements in $\pi_k(G_{\lambda}^X)$, for countably many $k$ and different values of $\lambda$. In particular we show that the fragile elements $w_{\ell}$ found by Abreu-McDuff in $\pi_{4 \ell}(G_{\ell+1}^{pt})$ do not disappear when we consider them in $S^2 \times S^2 \times X$.
 Cristina Martinez Ramirez Mathematics , 2006, Abstract: We compute the degree of the variety parametrizing rational ruled surfaces of degree d in the projective space by relating the problem to Gromov-Witten invariants and Quantum cohomology.
 Mathematics , 2006, Abstract: We compute local Gromov-Witten invariants of cubic surfaces at all genera. We use a deformation of a cubic surface to a nef toric surface and the deformation invariance of Gromov-Witten invariants.
 Jianxun Hu Mathematics , 2010, DOI: 10.1016/j.geomphys.2011.02.004 Abstract: In this paper, using the degeneration formula we obtain a blowup formulae of local Gromov-Witten invariants of Fano surfaces. This formula makes it possible to compute the local Gromov-Witten invariants of non-toric Fano surfaces form toric Fano surface, such as del Pezzo surfaces. This formula also verifed an expectation of Chiang-Klemm-Yau-Zaslow.
 Brett Parker Mathematics , 2011, Abstract: This paper describes the structure of the moduli space of holomorphic curves and constructs Gromov Witten invariants in the category of exploded manifolds. This includes defining Gromov Witten invariants relative to normal crossing divisors and proving the associated gluing theorem which involves summing relative invariants over a count of tropical curves.
 Kai Behrend Mathematics , 1997, Abstract: We prove that the system of Gromov-Witten invariants of the product of two varieties is equal to the tensor product of the systems of Gromov-Witten invariants of the two factors.
 Alexander Postnikov Mathematics , 2000, Abstract: The group (Z/nZ)^2 is shown to act on the Gromov-Witten invariants of the complex flag manifold. We also deduce several corollaries of this result.
