Augmentation categories in higher dimensions

Symplectic Geometry 2026-02-12 v4

Abstract

For an exact symplectic manifold MM and a Legendrian submanifold Λ\Lambda of the contactification M×RM\times \mathbb{R}, we construct the augmentation category (over a field of characteristic 2), a unital AA_\infty-category whose objects are augmentations of the Chekanov-Eliashberg differential graded algebra. This extends the construction of the augmentation category by Ng-Rutherford-Shende-Sivek-Zaslow to contact manifolds of dimension greater than 3.
