We survey a very general (nonlinear) Fredholm theory for a new class of ambient spaces, called polyfolds. This theory is being currently developed jointly with K. Wysocki and E. Zehnder. The basic feature of these new spaces is that in…

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 develop a new approach to Lagrangian-Floer gluing. The construction of the gluing map is based on the intersection theory in some Hilbert manifold of paths $\mathcal{P} $. We consider some moduli spaces of perturbed holomorphic curves…

In this paper we first apply the chain level Floer theory to the study of Hofer's geometry of Hamiltonian diffeomorphism group in the cases without quantum contribution: we prove that any quasi-autonomous Hamiltonian path on weakly exact…

In the first part of the present series of papers, we studied the moduli spaces of holomorphic discs and strips into an open symplectic manifold, isomorphic to the complement of a smooth divisor in a closed symplectic manifold. In…

We describe a (nonlinear) Fredholm theory for a new class of ambient spaces, as well as for a certain type of categories. The theory is illustrated by an application to the category of stable maps.

We prove an equivalence between the superpotential defined via tropical geometry and Lagrangian Floer theory for special Lagrangian torus fibres in del Pezzo surfaces constructed by Collins-Jacob-Lin. We also include some explicit…

We construct a family of Lagrangian tori $\Theta^n_s$ $\subset$ $(\mathbb{C}P^1)^n$, $s \in (0,1)$, where $\Theta^n_{1/2} = \Theta^n$, is the monotone twist Lagrangian torus described by Chekanov-Schlenk. We show that for $n = 2m$ and $s…

Floer invented his theory in the mid eighties in order to prove the Arnol'd conjectures on the number of fixed point of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms and Lagrangian intersections. Over the last thirty years, many versions of Floer homology…

The Floer cohomology and the Fukaya category are not defined in general. Indeed, while the issue of obstructions can be theoretically addressed by introducing bounding cochains, the actual existence of even one such bounding cochain is…

We define Lagrangian Floer cohomology over $\mathbb Z_2$-coefficients by counting pearly trajectories for graded, exact Lagrangian immersions that satisfy certain positivity condition on the index of the non-embedded points, and show that…

We say that a fixed point of a diffeomorphism is non-degenerate if 1 is not an eigenvalue of the linearization at the fixed point. We use pseudo-holomorphic curves techniques to prove the following: the inclusion map $$i: \text{Diff} ^{1}…

Let N be a complete, simply-connected surface of constant curvature \kappa \leq 0. Moreover, suppose that \Omega and \tilde{\Omega} are strictly convex domains in N with the same area. We show that there exists an area-preserving…

The goal of this paper is to prove an equivalence relation between the immersed Lagrangian Floer theory, defined using pearly tree discs, and local Hamiltonian flows, i.e., Hamiltonian flows performed in the Weinstein tubular neighborhood.…

In this paper we show that there exist simply connected symplectic 4-manifolds which contain infinitely many knotted lagrangian tori, i.e. lagrangian embeddings of tori that are homotopic but not isotopic. Moreover, the homology class they…

We describe a very general (nonlinear) Fredholm theory for a new class of ambient spaces, called polyfolds. This theory is applicable to Gromov-Witten and Floer Theory as well as Symplectic Field Theory. It should also be applicable to a…
