We compute the Lagrangian Floer cohomology groups of certain tori in closed simply connected symplectic 4-manifolds arising from Fintushel-Stern knot surgery. These manifolds are usually not symplectically aspherical. As a result of the…

We propose a way to define and compute invariants of general smooth 4-manifolds based on topological twists of non-Lagrangian 4d N=2 and N=3 theories in which the problem is reduced to a fairly standard computation in topological A-model,…

A new topological invariant of closed connected orientable four-dimensional manifolds is proposed. The invariant, constructed via surgery on a special link, is a four-dimensional counterpart of the celebrated SU(2) three-manifold invariant…

We introduce a type of surgery on metric spaces. This surgery, in some sense, seeks to replace a subspace $S$ of a metric space $X$ with another metric space $T$ via a function $f : S \to T$. When $T$ is a discrete space, this amounts to…

We show that the pre-order defined on the category of contact manifolds by arbitrary symplectic cobordisms is considerably less rigid than its counterparts for exact or Stein cobordisms: in particular, we exhibit large new classes of…

For a given $g>0$, we construct a family of non-decomposable Lagrangian cobordisms of genus $g$ between (stabilized) Legendrian knots in the standard contact three-sphere. The main technique we use to obstruct decomposability is based on…

For a large class of toric domains in $\mathbb{R}^4$ we determine which product Lagrangian tori can be mapped into the domain by a Hamiltonian diffeomorphism. In other words, we compute the Hamiltonian shape invariant of these toric…

We introduce and study a "desingularization" of a Lie groupoid $G$ along an "$A(G)$-tame" submanifold $L$ of the space of units $M$. An $A(G)$-tame submanifold $L \subset M$ is one that has, by definition, a tubular neighborhood on which…

Let $(M,\xi)$ be a contact 3-manifold. We present two new algorithms, the first of which converts an open book $(\Sigma,\Phi)$ supporting $(M,\xi)$ with connected binding into a contact surgery diagram. The second turns a contact surgery…

For a nullhomologous Legendrian knot in a closed contact 3-manifold Y we consider a contact structure obtained by positive rational contact surgery. We prove that in this situation the Heegaard Floer contact invariant of Y is mapped by a…

In this paper, we study the geometry of the SYZ transform on a semi-flat Lagrangian torus fibration. Our starting point is an investigation on the relation between Lagrangian surgery of a pair of straight lines in a symplectic 2-torus and…

We construct a new surgery type operation by switching between two exact fillings of Legendrians which we call a BSP surgery. In certain cases, this surgery can preserve monotonicity of Lagrangians. We prove a wall-crossing type formula for…

Given a Lagrangian cobordism $L$ of Legendrian submanifolds from $\Lambda_-$ to $\Lambda_+$, we construct a functor $\Phi_L^*: Sh^c_{\Lambda_+}(M) \rightarrow Sh^c_{\Lambda_-}(M) \otimes_{C_{-*}(\Omega_*\Lambda_-)} C_{-*}(\Omega_*L)$…

In this article, we consider the manifold learning problem when the data set is invariant under the action of a compact Lie group $K$. Our approach consists in augmenting the data-induced graph Laplacian by integrating over the $K$-orbits…

We revise the twistor--like superfield approach to describing super--p--branes by use of the basic principles of the group--manifold approach \cite{rheo}. A super--p--brane action is constructed solely of geometrical objects as the integral…
