Gromov-Witten invariant $\langle p, p, \ell\rangle_{0, 1}$ counting degree $1$, genus $0$ curves in $\mathbb{CP}^2$?

Let $p \in H^4(\mathbb{CP}^2)$ and $\ell \in H^2(\mathbb{CP}^2)$ be the cohomology classes Poincaré dual to a point and a line respectively. Question. What is the Gromov-Witten invariant $\langle p, ...

Higher genus closed string B-model

The closed string A-model is mathematically described by Gromov-Witten invariants of a compact symplectic manifold $X$. The genus 0 GW invariants give the structure of quantum cohomology of $X$, which ...
