Pole Structure of Topological String Free Energy
Abstract
Description
We show that the free energy of the topological string admits a certain pole structure by using the operator formalism. Combined with the results of Peng that proved the integrality, this gives a combinatoric proof of the Gopakumar-Vafa conjecture.
