We consider a class of Lagrangian sections $L$ contained in certain Calabi-Yau Lagrangian fibrations (mirrors of toric weak Fano manifolds). We prove that a form of the Thomas-Yau conjecture holds in this case: $L$ is Hamiltonian isotopic…
We study the decomposability of a Lagrangian homology class on a K3 surface into a sum of classes represented by special Lagrangian submanifolds, and develop criteria for it in terms of lattice theory. As a result, we prove the…
We study special Lagrangian fibrations of $\mathrm{SU}(3)$-manifolds, not necessarily torsion-free. In the case where the fiber is a unimodular Lie group $G$, we decompose such $\mathrm{SU}(3)$-structures into triples of solder 1-forms,…
The space Loc(m,S) of rank m flat bundles on a closed surface S is K_2-symplectic. A threefold M bounding S gives rise a K_2-Lagrangian in Loc(m,S) given by the flat bundles on S extending to M. We generalize this, replacing the zero…
Let L be a Lagrangian submanifold of a pseudo- or para-K\"ahler manifold which is H-minimal, i.e. a critical point of the volume functional restricted to Hamiltonian variations. We derive the second variation of the volume of L with respect…
In this article we extend the construction of the Floer fundamental group to the monotone Lagrangian setting and use it to study the fundamental group of a Lagrangian cobordism $W\subset (\mathbb{C}\times M, \omega_{st}\oplus\omega)$…
The purpose of this paper is to prove a gluing theorem for a given special Lagrangian submanifold of a Calabi-Yau 3-fold. The proof will be an adaption of the gluing techniques in J-holomorphic curve theory. It is a well known procedure in…
In this paper, it is explained that a topological invariant for 3-manifold $M$ with $b_1(M)=1$ can be constructed by applying Fukaya's Morse homotopy theoretic approach for Chern--Simons perturbation theory to a local system on $M$ of…
Any action of a group $\Gamma$ on $\mathbb H^3$ by isometries yields a class in degree three bounded cohomology by pulling back the volume cocycle to $\Gamma$. We prove that the bounded cohomology of finitely generated Kleinian groups…
Obstructions to the existence of spacelike solitons depending on the growth of the mean curvature $H$ are proved for Lorentzian products $(M\times \mathbb{R}, \bar g=g_M-dt^2)$ with lowerly bounded curvature. The role of these bounds for…
The aim of this paper is to study the relationship between Hamiltonian dynamics and constrained variational calculus. We describe both using the notion of Lagrangian submanifolds of convenient symplectic manifolds and using the so-called…
On an oriented, compact, connected, real four-dimensional manifold, $M$, we introduce a topological Lagrangian gauge field theory with a Bogomol'nyi structure that leads to non-singular, finite-Action, stable solutions to the variational…
We prove a generalised version of finiteness of skein modules for 3-manifolds by including boundary. We show that internal skein modules are holonomic modules over the internal skein algebra of the boundary - a property including finite…
We discuss the deformation theory of special Lagrangian (SL) conifolds in complex space C^m. Conifolds are a key ingredient in the compactification problem for moduli spaces of compact SLs in Calabi-Yau manifolds. This category allows for…
In this paper we define, for each aspherical orientable 3-manifold $M$ endowed with a \emph{torus splitting} $\c{T}$, a 2-dimensional fundamental $l_1$-class $[M]^{\c{T}}$ whose $l_1$-norm has similar properties as the Gromov simplicial…
Let N be a complete hyperbolic 3-manifold that is an algebraic limit of geometrically finite hyperbolic 3-manifolds. We show N is homeomorphic to the interior of a compact 3-manifold, or tame, if one of the following conditions holds: (1) N…
We study the topology of Hamiltonian-minimal Lagrangian submanifolds N in C^m constructed from intersections of real quadrics in a work of the first author. This construction is linked via an embedding criterion to the well-known Delzant…
We examine the $L^2$-topology of the gauge orbits over a closed Riemann surface. We prove a subtle local slice theorem based on the div-curl Lemma of harmonic analysis, and deduce local pathwise connectedness and local uniform…
Let $P \subset \mathbb{R}^m$ be a polytope of dimension $m$ with $n$ facets. Assume that $P$ is Delzant and Fano. We associate a monotone embedded Lagrangian $L \subset \mathbb{C}P^{n-1}$ to $P$. As an abstract manifold, the Lagrangian $L$…
We propose an operator generalization of the Li-Haldane conjecture regarding the entanglement Hamiltonian of a disk in a 2+1D chiral gapped groundstate. The logic applies to regions with sharp corners, from which we derive several universal…
