The main purpose of this paper is to provide a description of the fundamental group of a symplectic manifold in terms of Floer theoretic objects. As an application, we show that when counted with a suitable notion of multiplicity, non…

This paper studies the geometry of the group of all co-Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of a compact cosymplectic manifold $(M, \omega, \eta)$. The fix-point theory for co-Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms is studied, and we use Arnold's conjecture to…

Consider a closed coisotropic submanifold $N$ of a symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$ and a Hamiltonian diffeomorphism $\phi$ on $M$. The main result of this article states that $\phi$ has at least the cup-length of $N$ many leafwise fixed…

In this paper, we construct a Hamiltonian Floer theory based invariant called relative symplectic cohomology, which assigns a module over the Novikov ring to compact subsets of closed symplectic manifolds. We show the existence of…

We study groups of homeomorphisms of R, each of whose elements have at most one fixed point. In particular we prove that any such group of C^2 diffeomorphisms is topologically conjugate to an affine group.

The Floer homology of a cotangent bundle is isomorphic to loop space homology of the underlying manifold, as proved by Abbondandolo-Schwarz, Salamon-Weber, and Viterbo. In this paper we show that in the presence of a Dirac magnetic monopole…

We consider symplectic Floer homology in the lowest nontrivial dimension, that is to say, for area-preserving diffeomorphisms of surfaces. Particular attention is paid to the quantum cap product; we show that it distinguishes the trivial…

Let $(M,\omega)$ be a geometrically bounded symplectic manifold, $N\subseteq M$ a closed, regular (i.e. "fibering") coisotropic submanifold, and $\phi:M\to M$ a Hamiltonian diffeomorphism. The main result of this article is that the number…

Assume $M$ to be $\mathbb R^2$ or a closed surface of genus $g \geq 1$ and $\omega$ a symplectic form on $M$. Let $\varphi: M \to M$ be a symplectomorphism with hyperbolic fixed point $x$ and transversely intersecting stable and unstable…

In this note we present a brief introduction to Lagrangian Floer homology and its relation with the solution of Arnol'd conjecture, on the minimal number of non-degenerate fixed points of a Hamiltonian diffeomorphism. We start with the…

In this paper, we prove that if a continuous Hamiltonian flow fixes the points in an open subset $U$ of a symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$, then its associated Hamiltonian is constant at each moment on $U$. As a corollary, we prove that the…

A new relation between homoclinic points and Lagrangian Floer homology is presented: In dimension two, we construct a Floer homology generated by primary homoclinic points. We compute two examples and prove an invariance theorem. Moreover,…

We define a new variant of Rabinowitz Floer homology that is particularly well suited to studying the growth rate of leaf-wise intersections. We prove that for closed manifolds $M$ whose loop space is "complicated", if $\Sigma$ is a…

We prove the transversality result necessary for defining local Morse chain complexes with finite cyclic group symmetry. Our arguments use special regularized distance functions constructed using classical covering lemmas, and an inductive…

The Floer cohomology of a symplectic automorphism and that of its square are related by the pair-of-pants product. For exact symplectic automorphisms, we introduce an equivariant version of that product, and use it to prove a Smith-type…

We prove the Conley conjecture for a closed symplectically aspherical symplectic manifold: a Hamiltonian diffeomorphism of a such a manifold has infinitely many periodic points. More precisely, we show that a Hamiltonian diffeomorphism with…

We study the dynamics of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms on convex symplectic manifolds. To this end we first establish the Piunikhin-Salamon-Schwarz isomorphism between the Floer homology and the Morse homology of such a manifold, and then use…

A fundamental result of Banyaga states that the Hamiltonian diffeomorphism group of a closed symplectic manifold is perfect. We refine this result by proving that, locally in the $C^\infty$ topology, the number of commutators needed to…

We investigate the geometric and topological properties of the group of locally conformally symplectic (LCS) diffeomorphisms, utilizing the LCS flux homomorphism defined by S. Haller. By analyzing the flux map from the universal cover of…

The main result of the paper is that for any closed symplectic manifold the spectral norm of the iterates of a Hamiltonian diffeomorphism is locally uniformly bounded away from zero $C^\infty$-generically.
