Symplectic Geometry
We construct a Lagrangian Floer homology whose chain complex is generically generated by the inscriptions of isosceles trapezoids in a smooth Jordan curve. This is an extension of Greene and Lobb's Jordan Floer homology (arXiv:2404.05179),…
Mirror symmetry predicts an action by the fundamental group of a conjectural stringy K\"ahler moduli space on the derived category of an algebraic variety. For a toric variety, a model for this space is understood, but constructing the…
We develop a calculus for counting pseudoholomorphic disks with boundary in tropical Lagrangians contained in almost toric manifolds, using our previous work with Venugopalan. The results are mostly in dimension four under monotonicity…
For a compact and connected Lie group $G$, we present an explicit construction of an $\mathbb{S}^1$-gerbe over the differentiable stack $[G/G]$ in the framework of $\mathbb{S}^1$-central extensions of Lie groupoids. This gives a complete…
The notion of \emph{concurrence} was recently proposed as the natural compatibility relation between Dirac structures, generalizing the commutativity of two Poisson structures. We address the question of when a reduction scheme -- that is,…
Comet-type periodic orbits of the circular restricted three-body problem (CR3BP) are periodic solutions that are generated from very large retrograde and direct circular Keplerian motions around the common center of mass of the primaries.…
A key question for $4$-manifolds $M$ admitting symplectic structures is to determine which cohomology classes $\alpha\in H^2(M,\mathbb R)$ admit a symplectic representative. The collection of all such classes, the symplectic cone $\mathcal…
We lay the foundations of convex hypersurface theory in contact topology, extending the work of Giroux in dimension three. Specifically, we prove that any closed hypersurface in a contact manifold can be $C^0$-approximated by a convex one.…
We develop a general procedure for reduction along strong Dirac maps, which are a broad generalization of Poisson momentum maps. We recover a large number of familiar constructions in Poisson and quasi-Poisson geometry, and we introduce new…
In this paper, we construct a generating function quadratic at infinity for any exact Lagrangian in $\mathbb R^{2n}$ that equals $\mathbb R^n$ outside a compact set. Such a Lagrangian may be viewed as a Lagrangian filling of the standard…
Gorenstein toric contact manifolds are good toric contact manifolds with zero first Chern class that are completely determined by certain integral convex polytopes called toric diagrams. The Ehrhart polynomial of these toric diagrams…
For a complex algebraic torus $\mathbb{T}$, we study $\mathbb{T}$-invariant Poisson deformations of a $\mathbb{T}$-log-symplectic log-canonical Poisson structure $\pi_0$ on $\mathbb{C}^n$. We show that every $\mathbb{T}$-invariant…
We study the space of $A_\infty$-natural transformations between braiding functors acting on the Fukaya category associated to the Coulomb branch $\mathcal{M}(\bullet,1)$ of the $\mathfrak{sl}_2$ quiver gauge theory. We compute all…
We study 1-parameter families of holomorphic curves with Lagrangian boundary in Calabi-Yau 3-folds. We show that the expected codimension one phenomena can be organized to match the HOMFLYPT skein relations from quantum topology. It follows…
We construct new sets of log-canonical coordinates on the $SL(2, \mathbb{C})$ character variety of compact Riemann surfaces. These are labelled by families of $1\leq m\leq 3g-3$ non-intersecting simple loops on the Riemann surface and are…
In this paper, we prove that the ${\rm Ham}$-orbit space from a fiber of a large family of cotangent bundles, as a metric space with respect to the Floer-theoretic spectral metric, contains a quasi-isometric embedding of an…
Given a symplectic manifold, can one pack uncountably many Lagrangian submanifolds in a given Hamiltonian isotopy class of this symplectic manifold? We address $C^\infty$ and $C^0$ versions of this question.
We prove a compactness result for gradient flow lines in a general set-up which comprises both the situation of Morse gradient flow lines as well as Floer cylinders converging to a critical submanifold respectively. For the compactness…
We show that there is no universal upper bound for the systolic ratio of Bott-integrable contact forms on closed 3-manifolds, thus providing further evidence for the relative flexibility of integrable contact forms. For the proof, we study…
This paper develops new links between contact geometry, magnetic dynamics, and symmetry in exact magnetic systems. First, we establish an interpolation property for Killing magnetic systems on contact manifolds under an additional…
