Abstract
Celebrated work of Bridgeland and Smith shows a correspondence between quadratic differentials with prescribed singularities on Riemann surfaces and stability conditions on particular 3-Calabi-Yau triangulated categories. In joint work with Omar Kidwai, we compute the Donaldson-Thomas (DT) invariants appearing for generic stability conditions in these categories. These are enumerative geometric invariants counting the semistable objects. In particular, we show that the value of the DT invariant depends upon the type of finite-length trajectory of the quadratic differential corresponding to the semistable object in the Bridgeland-Smith picture. This verifies predictions for the values of the DT invariants due to Iwaki and Kidwai using the topological recursion of Eynard and Orantin.
