Abstract
We construct a fully equivariant correspondence between Gromov–Witten and stable pairs descendent theories for toric –folds . Our method uses geometric constraints on descendents, surfaces and the topological vertex. The rationality of the stable pairs descendent theory plays a crucial role in the definition of the correspondence. We prove our correspondence has a non-equivariant limit.
As a result of the construction, we prove an explicit non-equivariant stationary descendent correspondence for (conjectured by MNOP). Using descendent methods, we establish the relative GW/Pairs correspondence for in several basic new log Calabi–Yau geometries. Among the consequences is a rationality constraint for non-equivariant descendent Gromov–Witten series for .
