Mathematical theory of Gauge Linear Sigma Models (GLSM) is a curve counting theory generalizing Gromov-Witten invariants and allowing the target space to include a superpotential. I will talk about an extension of the notion of quantum cohomology central charges to this case. I plan to mention how one can use them to define special Kahler metric on the associated moduli space in the Calabi-Yau case.
