Some remarks on Gopakumar-Vafa invariants. (English) Zbl 1130.14300

Summary: We show that Gopakumar-Vafa invariants can be expressed in terms of the cohomology ring of moduli space of D-branes without reference to the \(\mathfrak{sl}_2 \times \mathfrak{sl}_2\) action. We also give a simple construction of this action.
