Symplectic Geometry

To a pair $(A,s)$ consisting of a smooth, cyclic $A_\infty$-algebra $A$ and a splitting $s$ of the Hodge filtration on its Hochschild homology Costello (2005) associates an invariant which conjecturally generalizes the total descendant…

Given a smooth closed $n$-manifold $M$ and a $\kappa$-tuple of basepoints $\boldsymbol{q}\subset M$, we define a Morse-type $A_\infty$-algebra $CM_{-*}(\Omega(M,\boldsymbol{q}))$, called the based multiloop $A_\infty$-algebra, as a graded…

We give a construction of ``quantum Maslov characteristic classes'', generalizing to higher dimensional cycles the Hu-Lalonde-Seidel morphism. We also state a conjecture extending this to an $A _{\infty}$ functor from the exact path…

We prove the homological mirror symmetry conjecture of Kontsevich for K3 surfaces in the following form: The Fukaya category of a projective K3 surface is equivalent to the derived category of coherent sheaves on the mirror, which is a K3…

Consider a compact symplectic manifold of dimension $2n$ with a Hamiltionan circle action. Then there are at least $n+1$ fixed points. Motivated by recent works on the case that the fixed point set consists of precisely $n+1$ isolated…

We prove that a pair of continuous disjoint periodic curves in $\mathbb{C}$ inscribes an isosceles trapezoid with any similarity type. The case of smooth curves can be identified with a Lagrangian intersection problem for a pair of…

We relate non-orderability in contact topology to shortening in the contact Hofer norm. Combined with considerations of open books, this provides many new examples of non-orderable contact manifolds, including contact boundaries of…

For a symplectic toric manifold we consider half-form quantization in mixed polarizations $\mathcal{P}_\infty$, associated to the action of a subtorus $T^p\subset T^n$. The real directions in these polarizations are generated by components…

We introduce operations with p-adic integer coefficients, associated to idempotents in the quantum cohomology of a monotone symplectic manifold, and apply them to the structure of the quantum connection.

This article has a twofold purpose. On the one hand I would like to draw attention to some nice exercises on the Kepler laws, due to Otto Laporte from 1970. Our discussion here has a more geometric flavour than the original analytic…

Guillermou-Kashiwara-Schapira proved that there exists a unique sheaf quantization of any homogeneous Hamiltonian isotopy on a cotangent bundle. In this paper, we explicitly construct a sheaf quantization of geodesic flows on spheres and…

We present an unobstructedness criterion for Lagrangian threefolds $L\subset X^A$ using the $H_1(L)$-class associated with the boundary of a pseudoholomorphic disk. As an application, let $X^A\to Q$ be a Lagrangian torus fibration whose…

In this paper, we prove Shelukhin's conjecture on the translated points on any closed contact manifold $(Q,\xi)$ which reads that for any choice of function $H = H(t,x)$ and contact form $\lambda$ the contactomorphism $\psi_H^1$ carries a…

Following a proposal of Fukaya-Ono and the exploration by B. Parker, we introduce a new transversality condition, the FOP transversality condition, for sections of orbifold vector bundles $\mathcal{E} \rightarrow \mathcal{U}$ when both…

A fundamental and deep result in symplectic topology due to Abouzaid and Kragh states that the Maslov class vanishes for closed exact Lagrangians in cotangent bundles of closed manifolds. In this article we prove by an explicit construction…

This paper extends the flux homomorphism to volume-preserving homeomorphisms. A surprising $(C^0, \delta)-$rigidity result where the extended flux groups coincide with the standard flux group is proved. The introduced tools, which also…

In this note, we prove that every closed connected oriented odd-dimensional manifold admits a map of non-zero degree (i.e., a domination) from a tight contact manifold of the same dimension. This provides an odd-dimensional counterpart of a…

We construct a class of perturbations of the Cauchy-Riemann equations for maps from curves to a Calabi-Yau threefold. Our perturbations vanish on components of zero symplectic area. For generic 1-parameter families of perturbations, the…

We compute Seidel's mirror map for abelian varieties by constructing the homogeneous coordinate rings from the Fukaya category of the symplectic mirrors. The computations are feasible as only linear holomorphic disks contribute to the…

In this paper, we study homological monodromy of a Lagrangian submanifold. We prove that homological Lagrangian monodromy is trivial if Hofer energy of a Hamiltonian isotopy is smaller than the minimum energy of J-holomorphic spheres and…
