Quantum D-modules for toric nef complete intersections

On a smooth projective variety with k ample line bundles, we denote by Z the complete intersection subvariety defined by generic sections. We define the twisted quantum D-module which is a vector bundle with a flat connection, a flat pairing and a natural integrable structure. An appropriate quotient of it is isomorphic to the ambient part of the quantum D-module of Z. When the variety is toric, these quantum D-modules are cyclic. The twisted quantum D-module can be presented via mirror symmetry by the GKZ system associated to the total space of the dual of the direct sum of these line bundles. A question is to know what is the system of equations that define the ambiant part of the quantum D-module of Z. We construct this system as a quotient ideal of the GKZ system. We also state and prove the non-equivariant twisted Gromov-Witten axioms in the appendix.

Quantum Serre theorem as a duality between quantum D-modules

We give an interpretation of quantum Serre of Coates and Givental as a duality of twisted quantum D-modules. This interpretation admits a non-equivariant limit, and we obtain a precise relationship among (1) the quantum D-module of X twisted by a convex vector bundle E and the Euler class, (2) the quantum D-module of the total space of the dual bundle E^\vee over X, and (3) the quantum D-module of a submanifold Z\subset X cut out by a regular section of E. When E is the anticanonical line bundle K_X^{-1}, we identify these twisted quantum D-modules with second structure connections with different parameters, which arise as Fourier-Laplace transforms of the quantum D-module of X. In this case, we show that the duality pairing is identified with Dubrovin's second metric (intersection form).

An asymptotic existence theorem for plane curves with prescribed singularities

Let $d,m_1,...,m_r$ be ($r+1$) positive integers, and $P_1,...,P_r$ be $r$ general points in the projective plane ; let $m$ be a positive integer. We prove that there exists a bound $d_0(m)$ such that : If $m_i < m$ ($0 d_0(m)$ then the linear system $L$ of plane curves of degree $d$ having a multiplicity at least $m_i$ at each point $P_i$ has the expected dimension ; moreover, if $L$ is not empty, there exists an irreducible plane curve of degree $d$, smooth away from the $r$ points $P_i$, and having an ordinary singularity of the prescribed multiplicity $m_i$ at each point $P_i$. This curve may be isolated in $L$.
