Abstract/Contents

Abstract
The Gopakumar-Vafa conjecture arising from string theory states that BPS counts of a Calabi-Yau 3-fold (obtained from Gromov-Witten invariants using a power series formula) are integers. A symplectic version of the conjecture was proved by Ionel-Parker. In this thesis we prove a generalization of the symplectic Gopakumar-Vafa conjecture to the case of real Gromov-Witten invariants. Namely, real genus 0 BPS states of a Calabi-Yau 3-fold with an anti-symplectic involution (which are obtained from real genus 0 Gromov-Witten invariants) are integers. The proof combines topological methods from Ionel-Parker's proof of the original conjecture and Katz-Liu's computation of local BPS counts.
