Title

Quantum index of real plane curves and refined enumerative geometry

Abstract

We note that under certain conditions, the area bounded by the logarithmic image of a real plane curve is a half-integer multiple of pi square. The half-integer number can be interpreted as the quantum index of the real curve and used to refine enumerative invariants.
