Combinatorics of Hurwitz degenerations and tropical realizability

Mia Lam, Chi Kin Ng, Dhruv Ranganathan

We investigate the realizability of balanced functions on tropical curves, establishing new sufficient criteria for superabundant functions on genus two curves, analogous to the we…

The GW/PT conjectures for toric pairs

Davesh Maulik, Dhruv Ranganathan

We prove the conjectural correspondence between logarithmic Gromov-Witten theory and logarithmic Donaldson/Pandharipande-Thomas theory for pairs consisting of a to…

Logarithmic negative tangency and root stacks

Luca Battistella, Navid Nabijou, Dhruv Ranganathan

We study stable maps to normal crossings pairs with possibly negative tangency orders. There are two independent models: punctured Gromov-Witten theory of pairs and orbifold Gromov…

An invitation to the enumerative geometry of degenerations

Dhruv Ranganathan

This expository article is an introduction to logarithmic Gromov--Witten (GW) theory. We discuss how to study the GW theory of a smooth projective variety via simple normal crossin…

Gromov-Witten theory, degenerations, and the tautological ring

Davesh Maulik, Dhruv Ranganathan

Gromov-Witten (GW) theory produces Chow and cohomology classes on the moduli of curves, and there are several conjectures/speculations about their relation to the tautological ring…

Logarithmic Quot spaces, boundedness, and K-tropicalizations

Patrick Kennedy-Hunt, Dhruv Ranganathan

Logarithmic Hilbert and Quot spaces are generalizations of their traditional versions adapted to study pairs and degenerations. The logarithmic Quot spaces of parameterize…
