Pantev, Toen, Vaqui\'e and Vezzosi arXiv:1111.3209 defined $k$-shifted symplectic derived schemes and stacks ${\bf X}$ for $k\in\mathbb Z$, and Lagrangians ${\bf f}:{\bf L}\to{\bf X}$ in them. They have important applications to Calabi-Yau…

We introduce a symplectic surgery in six dimensions which collapses Lagrangian three-spheres and replaces them by symplectic two-spheres. Under mirror symmetry it corresponds to an operation on complex 3-folds studied by Clemens, Friedman…

This is a sequel of our previous work, arXiv:2209.09686, on the development of derived contact geometry, in which we formally introduced shifted contact structures on derived stacks and proved some results for $k$-shifted contact derived…

A categorical formalism is introduced for studying various features of the symplectic geometry of Lefschetz fibrations and the algebraic geometry of Tyurin degenerations. This approach is informed by homological mirror symmetry, derived…

We develop differential and symplectic geometry of differentiable Deligne-Mumford stacks (orbifolds) including Hamiltonian group actions and symplectic reduction. As an application we construct new examples of symplectic toric DM stacks as…

In this paper we derive the symplectic framework for field theories defined by higher-order Lagrangians. The construction is based on the symplectic reduction of suitable spaces of iterated jets. The possibility of reducing a higher-order…

This article generalizes the theory of shifted symplectic structures to the relative context and non-geometric stacks. We describe basic constructions that naturally appear in this theory: shifted cotangent bundles and the AKSZ procedure.…

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the definition of symplectic structure on a smooth stratified pseudomanifold in the framework of local $\C^{\infty}$-ringed space theory. We introduce a sheaf-theoretic definition of symplectic…

We construct a multiplicative spectral sequence converging to the symplectic cohomology ring of any affine variety $X$, with first page built out of topological invariants associated to strata of any fixed normal crossings compactification…

A geometrical structure on even-dimensional manifolds is defined which generalizes the notion of a Calabi-Yau manifold and also a symplectic manifold. Such structures are of either odd or even type and can be transformed by the action of…

This is an expended and revised version of the preprint "Schematization of homotopy types". The purpose of this work is to introduce a notion of \emph{affine stacks}, which is a homotopy version of the notion of affine schemes, and to give…

In this work we study the phase structure of skew symplectic sigma models, which are a certain class of two-dimensional N = (2,2) non-Abelian gauged linear sigma models. At low energies some of them flow to non-linear sigma models with…

We classify the Deligne-Mumford stacks M compactifying the moduli space of smooth $n$-pointed curves of genus one under the condition that the points of M represent Gorenstein curves with distinct markings. This classification uncovers new…

We prove that the derived critical locus of a $G$-invariant function $S:X\to\mathbb{A}^1$ carries a shifted moment map, and that its derived symplectic reduction is the derived critical locus of the induced function…

We define a class of symplectic fibrations called symplectic configurations. They are natural generalization of Hamiltonian fibrations. Their geometric and topological properties are investigated. We are mainly concentrated on integral…

We show that a topological symplectic manifold has a canonically associated bi-Lipschitz structure. As a corollary, we obtain the first examples of non-existence and non-uniqueness for topological symplectic structures. Our arguments hold…
