Orbifold Gromov–Witten theory of the symmetric product of $\mathcal{A}_r$

Wan Keng Cheong and Amin Gholampour

Geometry & Topology 16 (2012) 475–526
Abstract

Let Ar be the minimal resolution of the type Ar surface singularity. We study the equivariant orbifold Gromov–Witten theory of the n–fold symmetric product stack [Symn(Ar)] of Ar. We calculate the divisor operators, which turn out to determine the entire theory under a nondegeneracy hypothesis. This, together with the results of Maulik and Oblomkov, shows that the Crepant Resolution Conjecture for Symn(Ar) is valid. More strikingly, we complete a tetrahedron of equivalences relating the Gromov–Witten theories of [Symn(Ar)]∕Hilbn(Ar) and the relative Gromov–Witten/Donaldson–Thomas theories of Ar × ℙ1.
