Induction for weak symplectic Banach manifolds

The symplectic induction procedure is extended to the case of weak symplectic Banach manifolds. Using this procedure, one constructs hierarchies of integrable Hamiltonian systems related to the Banach Lie–Poisson spaces of k$k$-diagonal trace class operators.     

Refined, Motivic, and Quantum

It is well known that in string compactifications on toric Calabi–Yau manifolds one can introduce refined BPS invariants that carry information not only about the charge of the BPS state but also about the spin content. In this paper we study how these invariants behave under wall crossing. In particular, by applying a refined wall crossing formula, we obtain the refined BPS degeneracies for the conifold in different chambers. The result can be interpreted in terms of a new statistical model that counts “refined” pyramid partitions; the model provides a combinatorial realization of wall crossing and clarifies the relation between refined pyramid partitions and the refined topological vertex. We also compare the wall crossing behavior of the refined BPS invariants with that of the motivic Donaldson–Thomas invariants introduced by Kontsevich–Soibelman. In particular, we argue that, in the context of BPS state counting, the three adjectives in the title of this paper are essentially synonymous.
