Variations on the theme of quantum Lefschetz

Abstract

In this companion piece to 1712.03573, some variations on the main results there are sketched. In particular, the recursions in 1712.03573, which we interpreted as the quantum Lefschetz, is reformulated in terms of Givental's quantization formalism, or equivalently, a summation of finitely many graphs. Meanwhile, varieties of modification of the auxilliary spaces (masterspaces) for the fixed point localization are given, leading to different (looking) recursions. There are also some applications of this circle of ideas to derive (apparently) new relations of Gromov--Witten invariants.
