Luca Battistella

Relative quasimaps and quasimap quantum Lefschetz

Quasimaps provide a compactification of the space of maps from smooth curves to a GIT quotient; Ciocan-Fontanine and Kim used them to prove beautiful wall-crossing formulae, comparing the resulting invariants with ordinary Gromov-Witten ones. In joint work with Navid Nabijou, we introduce the notion of genus zero relative quasimaps to a toric target X with respect to a smooth (but not necessarily toric) hyperplane section Y, extending work of Gathmann to this setting. Increasing the tangency requirement gives us smaller and smaller moduli spaces; their virtual classes are related by a simple recursion formula. Gathmann's inductive algorithm allows us to compute restricted invariants of Y from those of X. Under some positivity assumption, this can be made into a compact formula for generating series of quasimap invariants, which recovers a result of Ciocan-Fontanine and Kim. We are working towards an extension of this approach to reduced genus one invariants.

Giovanni Inchiostro

Moduli of Weierstrass fibrations.

We study the the moduli space of KSBA stable pairs (X,sS+\sum a_i F_i), consisting of a Weierstrass fibration X, its section S, and some fibers F_i. We find a compactification which is a DM stack, and we prove that there are wall-crossing morphisms when the weights s and a_i change. This recovers the work of Ascher and Bejleri in the case in which s=1 and the one of La Nave when s=1 and a_i=0.
