3 Motivation For string theorists It is called BPS states counting which means counting the D brane bound states. For mathematician Invariants of moduli spaces of virtual dimension zero associate with Calabi-Yau 3-fold X. holomorphic curves in X with fixed genus and degree, e.g. Gromov-Witten invariants 2. coherent sheaves with a fixed Chern character, e.g. Donaldson-Thomas (DT) invariants 2/35

32 Refined MacMahon We have seen that by using crystal melting model we can recover the refined BPS partition function except for the refined MacMahon function (defined by Behrend et. al.). Is it possible to adjust the counting weight to recover the exact refined BPS partition function? Crystal and motivic DT What is the intrinsic reason that counting crystal can reproduce the refined BPS partition function? Invariants and symmetries How is Heisenberg algebra categorification going to enter this story? Namely, how can we find operators which satisfy KS motivic wall-crossing formula? 3/35
