The Lagrangian Floer-quantum-PSS package and canonical orientations in Floer theory
Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to extend the construction of the PSS-type isomorphism between the Floer homology and the quantum homology of a monotone Lagrangian submanifold of a symplectic manifold , provided that the minimal Maslov number of is at least two, to arbitrary coefficients. We provide a proof, again over arbitrary coefficients, that this isomorphism respects the natural algebraic structures on both sides, such as the quantum product and the quantum module action. This isomorphism serves as the technical foundation for the construction of Lagrangian spectral invariants in a joint paper with Remi Leclercq (arXiv:1505:07430). Our constructions work when the second Stiefel--Whitney class of vanishes on the image of the boundary homomorphism , a condition strictly weaker than being relatively Pin; in particular we do not require to be orientable. The constructions are done using canonical orientations, and require no further choices such as relative Pin-structures. Such structures do however play a significant role when endowing the various complexes and homologies with structures of modules over Novikov rings, and in calculations.
