We consider complements of standard Seifert surfaces of special alternating links. On these handlebodies, we use Honda's method to enumerate those tight contact structures whose dividing sets are isotopic to the link, and find their number…
We construct an infinite family of homology theories of framed links in thickened surfaces, as well as a homology theory whose graded Euler characteristic is exactly the Kauffman bracket of the link in the surface. Both theories are based…
For an oriented irreducible 3-manifold M with non-empty toroidal boundary, we describe how sutured Floer homology ($SFH$) can be used to determine all fibered classes in $H^1(M)$. Furthermore, we show that the $SFH$ of a balanced sutured…
We prove that the knot Floer complex of a fibered knot detects whether the monodromy of its fibration is right-veering. In particular, this leads to a purely knot Floer-theoretic characterization of tight contact structures, by the work of…
Bordered Heegaard Floer homology is an invariant for three-manifolds with boundary. In particular, this invariant associates to a handle decomposition of a surface F a differential graded algebra, and to an arc slide between two handle…
A hom-associative structure is a set $A$ together with a binary operation $\star$ and a selfmap $\alpha$ such that an $\alpha$-twisted version of associativity is fulfilled. In this paper, we assume that $\alpha$ is surjective. We show that…
We consider framed chord diagrams, i.e. chord diagrams with chords of two types. It is well known that chord diagrams modulo 4T-relations admit Hopf algebra structure, where the multiplication is given by any connected sum with respect to…
This is a survey article about knot Floer homology. We present three constructions of this invariant: the original one using holomorphic disks, a combinatorial description using grid diagrams, and a combinatorial description in terms of the…
We use results of Auroux arXiv:1001.4323 and Zemke arXiv:1801.09270 to prove that, in the morphism spaces formulation of Heegaard Floer homology given in arXiv:1005.1248, the opposite composition map agrees up to homotopy with the map on…
In homotopy type theory we can define the join of maps as a binary operation on maps with a common co-domain. This operation is commutative, associative, and the unique map from the empty type into the common codomain is a neutral element.…
Lipshitz, Ozsv\'ath, and Thurston extend the theory of bordered Heegaard Floer homology to compute $\mathbf{CF}^-$. Like with the hat theory, their minus invariants provide a recipe to compute knot invariants associated to satellite knots.…
Given a grid presentation of a knot (or link) K in the three-sphere, we describe a Heegaard diagram for the knot complement in which the Heegaard surface is a torus and all elementary domains are squares. Using this diagram, we obtain a…
This is a survey of bordered Heegaard Floer homology, an extension of the Heegaard Floer invariant HF-hat to 3-manifolds with boundary. Emphasis is placed on how bordered Heegaard Floer homology can be used for computations.
We describe a weighted $A_\infty$-algebra associated to the torus. We give a combinatorial construction of this algebra, and an abstract characterization. The abstract characterization also gives a relationship between our algebra and the…
Floer cohomology is computed for certain elements of the mapping class group of a surface $\Sigma$ of genus $g>1$ which are compositions of positive and negative dehn twists along some loops in $\Sigma$. The computations cover a certain…
We perform two explicit computations of bordered Heegaard Floer invariants. The first is the type D trimodule associated to the trivial S^1 bundle over the pair of pants P. The second is a bimodule that is necessary for self-gluing, when…
For closed 3-manifolds, Heegaard Floer homology is related to the Thurston norm through results due to Ozsv\'ath and Szab\'o, Ni, and Hedden. For example, given a closed 3-manifold Y, there is a bijection between vertices of the HF^+(Y)…
We show that for singular hypersurfaces, a version of their genus-zero Gromov-Witten theory may be described in terms of a direct limit of fixed point Floer cohomology groups, a construction which is more amenable to computation and easier…
Generalizing our ideas in [arXiv:1006.3313], we explain how topologically-twisted N=2 gauge theory on a four-manifold with boundary, will allow us to furnish purely physical proofs of (i) the Atiyah-Floer conjecture, (ii) Munoz's theorem…
In this paper we present our results on the homology cobordism group $\Th$ of the oriented integral homology 3-spheres. We specially emphasize the role played in the subject by the gauge theory including Floer homology and invariants by…
