Popis: In this paper, we develop the theory of punctured R-maps as a crucial component of logarithmic gauged linear sigma models (log GLSM). A punctured R-map is a punctured map in the sense of ACGS, further twisted by the sheaf of differentials on the domain curve. They admit two different but closely related perfect obstruction theories - a canonical one and a reduced one. While the canonical theory leads to generalized double ramification cycles with targets and spin structures, without expansions, the reduced theory describes boundary contributions in log GLSM. Major results of this paper include a sequence of axioms in both canonical and reduced theories: 1. A product formula computing disconnected invariants in terms of connected ones 2. Fundamental class axioms, string and divisor equations As an important application, these formulas lead to a class of invariants in the reduced theory, called effective invariants. They are at the heart of recent advances in GW theory, and will be shown to give rise to explicit correction terms to the quantum Lefschetz principle in higher genus GW theory for arbitrary smooth complete intersections in a forthcoming paper. For quintic 3-folds, we show that all effective invariants are determined by $[(2g-2)/5] + 1$ many basic effective invariants, using the formulas in (1) and (2). This matches the number of free parameters of the famous BCOV B-model theory in physics. Similar results apply to other complete intersections. This, together with the joint works of the last two authors and S. Guo on the genus two mirror theorem and the higher genus mirror conjectures for quintic 3-folds, shows that log GLSM is an effective tool for proving BCOV-type conjectures in higher genus GW theory. Further applications of punctured R-maps include an LG/CY correspondence for effective invariants and a relation to the locus of holomorphic differentials.
