Abstract

Let XY be smooth, projective manifolds. Assume that ι:Xs is the zero locus of a generic section of V+=iI𝒪(ki), where all the ki's are positive. Assume furthermore that 𝒩X/Y=ι(V), where V=jJ𝒪(lj) and all the lj's are negative. We show that under appropriate restrictions, the generalized Gromov-Witten invariants of X inherited from Y can be calculated via a modified Gromov-Witten theory on s. This leads to local mirror symmetry on the A-side.
