Supereigenvalue Models and Topological Recursion
Vincent Bouchard, Kento Osuga
We show that the Eynard-Orantin topological recursion, in conjunction with simple auxiliary equations, can be used to calculate all correlation functions of supereigenvalue models.
Vertical D4-D2-D0 bound states on K3 fibrations and modularity
Vincent Bouchard, Thomas Creutzig, Duiliu-Emanuel Diaconescu +3
An explicit formula is derived for the generating function of vertical D4-D2-D0 bound states on smooth K3 fibered Calabi-Yau threefolds, generalizing previous results of Gholampour…
Topological recursion and mirror curves
Vincent Bouchard, Piotr Sułkowski
We study the constant contributions to the free energies obtained through the topological recursion applied to the complex curves mirror to toric Calabi-Yau threefolds. We show tha…
Exploring a new peak in the heterotic landscape
Anthony Bak, Vincent Bouchard, Ron Donagi
We study the existence of realistic heterotic vacua on a new Abelian surface fibered Calabi-Yau threefold X with Z_8 x Z_8 fundamental group. Our main result is a no-go theorem, wh…
Topological open strings on orbifolds
Vincent Bouchard, Albrecht Klemm, Marcos Marino +1
We use the remodeling approach to the B-model topological string in terms of recursion relations to study open string amplitudes at orbifold points. To this end, we clarify modular…
Remodeling the B-model
Vincent Bouchard, Albrecht Klemm, Marcos Marino +1
We propose a complete, new formalism to compute unambiguously B-model open and closed amplitudes in local Calabi-Yau geometries, including the mirrors of toric manifolds. The forma…
