Log Calabi-Yau surfaces and Jeffrey-Kirwan residues

Abstract

We prove an equality, predicted in the physical literature, between the Jeffrey-Kirwan residues of certain explicit meromorphic forms attached to a quiver without loops or oriented cycles and its Donaldson-Thomas type invariants. In the special case of complete bipartite quivers we also show independently, using scattering diagrams and theta functions, that the same Jeffrey-Kirwan residues are determined by the the Gross-Hacking-Keel mirror family to a log Calabi-Yau surface.
