Logarithmic Toric Quasimaps

Abstract: Quasimaps provide an alternate curve counting system to Gromov-Witten theory, related by wall-crossing formulas. Relative (or logarithmic) Gromov-Witten theory has proved useful for constructions in mirror symmetry, as well as for determining ordinary Gromov-Witten invariants via the degeneration formula. I’ll discuss how to build a theory of logarithmic quasimaps in the toric case, some restrictions, and why one might want to do so.
