We define a class of non-compact Fano toric manifolds, called admissible toric manifolds, for which Floer theory and quantum cohomology are defined. The class includes Fano toric negative line bundles, and it allows blow-ups along fixed…
We introduce a new class of friezes which is related to symplectic geometry. On the algebraic and combinatrics sides, this variant of friezes is related to the cluster algebras involving the Dynkin diagrams of type ${\rm C}_{2}$ and ${\rm…
We develop Lagrangian Floer Theory for exact, graded, immersed Lagrangians with clean self-intersection using Seidel's setup. A positivity assumption on the index of the self intersection points is imposed to rule out certain (but not all)…
We develop criteria for affine varieties to admit uniruled subvarieties of certain dimensions. The measurements are from long exact sequences of versions of symplectic cohomology, which is a Hamiltonian Floer theory for some open symplectic…
The paper continues the discussion of symplectic aspects of Picard-Lefschetz theory begun in "Vanishing cycles and mutation" (this archive). There we explained how to associate to a suitable fibration over a two-dimensional disc a…
We discuss D-branes of the topological A-model (A-branes), which are believed to be closely related to the Fukaya category. We give string theory arguments which show that A-branes are not necessarily Lagrangian submanifolds in the…
In this paper we construct, in all odd complex dimensions, pairs of Liouville domains W_0 and W_1 which are diffeomorphic to the cotangent bundle of the sphere with one extra subcritical handle, but are not symplectomorphic. While W_0 is…
For any high-dimensional Weinstein domain and finite collection of primes, we construct a Weinstein subdomain whose wrapped Fukaya category is a localization of the original wrapped Fukaya category away from the given primes. When the…
We introduce a tropical version of the Fukaya algebra of a Lagrangian submanifold. Tropical graphs arise as large-scale behavior of pseudoholomorphic disks under a multiple cut operation on a symplectic manifold that produces a collection…
Let $L\subset X$ be a not necessarily orientable relatively $Pin$ Lagrangian submanifold in a symplectic manifold $X$. We construct a family of cyclic unital curved $A_\infty$ structures on differential forms on $L$ with values in the local…
This text is a set of lecture notes for a series of four talks given at I.P.A.M., Los Angeles, on March 18-20, 2003. The first lecture provides a quick overview of symplectic topology and its main tools: symplectic manifolds, almost-complex…
We study an enhanced version of the Morse degeneration of Fukaya $A_\infty$ category with higher compositions given by counts of gradient flow trees. The enhancement consists in allowing morphisms from an object to itself to be chains on…
In previous work, we introduced a version of the Fukaya algebra associated to a degeneration of a symplectic manifold, whose structure maps count collections of maps in the components of the degeneration satisfying matching conditions. In…
We sketch in this article a new theory, which we call Symplectic Field Theory or SFT, which provides an approach to Gromov-Witten invariants of symplectic manifolds and their Lagrangian submanifolds in the spirit of topological field…
We define an integer graded symplectic Floer cohomology and a spectral sequence which are new invariants for monotone Lagrangian sub-manifolds and exact isotopies. Such an integer graded Floer cohomology is an integral lifting of the usual…
The Fukaya category of a punctured surface can be reconstructed from a pair-of-pants decomposition using a formal construction that attaches a category to a trivalent graph. We extend this formal construction to include a choice of line…
Since its inception, Floer homology has been an important tool in low-dimensional topology. Floer theoretic invariants of $3$-manifolds tend to be either gauge theoretic or symplecto-geometric in nature, and there is a general philosophy…
Ideas of Fukaya and Kontsevich-Soibelman suggest that one can use Strominger-Yau-Zaslow's geometric approach to mirror symmetry as a torus duality to construct the mirror of a symplectic manifold equipped with a Lagrangian torus fibration…
We prove that the wrapped Fukaya category of any $2n$-dimensional Weinstein manifold (or, more generally, Weinstein sector) $W$ is generated by the unstable manifolds of the index $n$ critical points of its Liouville vector field. Our proof…
This paper introduces a new algebraic notion - triangulated persistence category (TPC) - that refines that of triangulated category in the same sense that a persistence module is a refinement of the notion of a vector space. The spaces of…
