Spitz %J Mathematics %D 2012 %I arXiv %R 10.1007/s00220-014-1887-2 %X We identify the Givental formula for the ancestor formal Gromov-Witten potential with a version of the topological recursion procedure for a collection of isolated local germs of the spectral curve. As an application we prove a conjecture of Norbury and Scott on the reconstruction of the stationary sector of the Gromov-Witten potential of $\CP1$ via a particular spectral curve. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1211.4021v1
