    Frobenius Manifolds And Virasoro Constraints

    Full text link
    For an arbitrary Frobenius manifold a system of Virasoro constraints is constructed. In the semisimple case these constraints are proved to hold true in the genus one approximation. Particularly, the genus 1\leq 1 Virasoro conjecture of T.Eguchi, K.Hori, M.Jinzenji, and C.-S.Xiong and of S.Katz is proved for smooth projective varieties having semisimple quantum cohomology.Comment: Latex, 40 page

    Bihamiltonian Hierarchies in 2D Topological Field Theory At One-Loop Approximation

    Get PDF
    We compute the genus one correction to the integrable hierarchy describing coupling to gravity of a 2D topological field theory. The bihamiltonian structure of the hierarchy is given by a classical W-algebra; we compute the central charge of this algebra. We also express the generating function of elliptic Gromov - Witten invariants via tau-function of the isomonodromy deformation problem arising in the theory of WDVV equations of associativity.Comment: 53 pages, Latex, two references added, some typos corrected, version to appear in Commun.

    Extended affine Weyl groups and Frobenius manifolds

    Get PDF
    We define certain extensions of affine Weyl groups (distinct from these considered by K. Saito [S1] in the theory of extended affine root systems), prove an analogue of Chevalley theorem for their invariants, and construct a Frobenius structure on their orbit spaces. This produces solutions F(t1,...,tn)F(t_1, ..., t_n) of WDVV equations of associativity polynomial in t1,...,tn1,exptnt_1, ..., t_{n-1}, \exp t_n.Comment: 69 pages, amslatex, some references added, position of Table 1 is corrected.

    Masur--Veech volumes of quadratic differentials and their asymptotics

    Full text link
    Based on the Chen--M\"oller--Sauvaget formula, we apply the theory of integrable systems to derive three equations for the generating series of the Masur--Veech volumes VolQg,n{\rm Vol} \, \mathcal{Q}_{g,n} associated with the principal strata of the moduli spaces of quadratic differentials, and propose refinements of the conjectural formulas given in [12,4] for the large genus asymptotics of VolQg,n{\rm Vol} \, \mathcal{Q}_{g,n} and of the associated area Siegel--Veech constants.Comment: 17 page
