This paper develops a symplectic bifurcation theory for integrable systems in dimension four. We prove that if an integrable system has no hyperbolic singularities and its bifurcation diagram has no vertical tangencies, then the fibers of…

Simon Donaldson and Ivan Smith recently studied symplectic surfaces in symplectic 4-manifolds X by introducing an invariant DS associated to any Lefschetz fibration on blowups of X which counts holomorphic sections of a relative Hilbert…

We consider the curve graph in the cases where it is not a Farey graph, and show that its Gromov boundary is linearly connected. For a fixed center point c and radius r, we define the sphere of radius r to be the induced subgraph on the set…

We propose a conjectural determination of the Gromov-Witten theory of a root stack along a smooth divisor. We verify our conjecture under an additional assumption.

We define Gromov-Witten classes and invariants of smooth projective schemes of finite presentation over a Dedekind domain. We prove that they are deformation invariants and verify the fundamental axioms. For a smooth projective scheme over…

We prove a symplectic version of a conjecture of Lian and Pandharipande: in sufficiently high degree, the fixed-domain Gromov-Witten invariants of positive symplectic manifolds are signed counts of pseudo-holomorphic curves. The original…

We investigate fibrations by non-hyperelliptic curves of arithmetic genus three and geometric genus one in characteristic two. Assuming that there is only one moving singularity and that its image in the Frobenius pullback of the fibration…

In this note, genus zero Gromov-Witten invariants are reviewed and then applied in some examples of dimension four and six. It is also proved that the use of genus zero Gromov-Witten invariants in the class of embedded $J$-holomorphic…

In this paper we look for necessary and sufficient conditions for a genus one fibration to have rational curves. We show that a projective variety with log terminal singularities that admits a relatively minimal genus one fibration…

The first part of this work constructs positive-genus real Gromov-Witten invariants of real-orientable symplectic manifolds of odd "complex" dimensions; the present part focuses on their properties that are essential for actually working…

We use techniques from Gromov-Witten theory to construct new invariants of matroids taking value in the Chow groups of spaces of rational curves in the permutohedral toric variety. When the matroid is realizable by a complex hyperplane…

The goal of this article is to motivate and describe how Gromov-Witten theory can and has provided tools to understand the moduli space of curves. For example, ideas and methods from Gromov-Witten theory have led to both conjectures and…

We study pseudoholomorphic curves in symplectic quotients as adiabatic limits of solutions of a system of nonlinear first order elliptic partial differential equations in the ambient symplectic manifold. The symplectic manifold carries a…

We provide a simple condition on rational cohomology for the total space of a pullback fibration over a connected sum to have the rational homotopy type of a connected sum, after looping. This takes inspiration from recent work of Jeffrey…

We adapt Gromov's notion of ideal-valued measures to symplectic topology, and use it for proving new results on symplectic rigidity and symplectic intersections. Furthermore, it enables us to discuss three "big fiber theorems", the…

Let X be any generalized flag variety with Picard group of rank one. Given a degree d, consider the Gromov-Witten variety of rational curves of degree d in X that meet three general points. We prove that, if this Gromov-Witten variety is…

We propose an intersection-theoretic method to reduce questions in genus zero logarithmic Gromov-Witten theory to questions in the Gromov-Witten theory of smooth pairs, in the presence of positivity. The method is applied to the enumerative…

In this paper, we explicitly prove that statistical manifolds, related to exponential families and with flat structure connection have a Frobenius manifold structure. This latter object, at the interplay of beautiful interactions between…

Gromov's band-width conjecture gives a precise upper bound for the width of a compact Riemannian band with positive scalar curvature lower bound, assuming that the cross-section of the band admits no positive scalar curvature metrics.…

We explore the theory of connected Gromov-Witten invariants of the symmetric product stack [Sym^n(A_r)]. We derive closed-form expressions for all equivariant invariants with two insertions and reveal a natural correspondence between the…
