Abstract
We present a proof of the full Mariño-Vafa Conjecture that identifies certain open string invariants of the resolved conifold with the Chern-Simons knot invariant of the unknot, i.e. the quantum dimensions. This proof is based on earlier works \cite{LLZ1, Oko-Pan, LLZ2} that culminate in a mathematical theory of the topological vertex \cite{LLLZ}.
