We complete the classification of symplectic fillings of tight contact structures on lens spaces. In particular, we show that any symplectic filling $X$ of a virtually overtwisted contact structure on $L(p,q)$ has another symplectic…

Let $M$ and $N$ be smooth closed connected aspherical manifolds with good (in the sense of Serre) fundamental groups $G$ and $H$. We show that if $\widehat G\cong \widehat H$, then $M$ and $N$ are cobordant and the signatures of $M$ and $N$…

Let X be a complex symplectic manifold. By showing that any Lagrangian subvariety has a unique lift to a contactification, we associate to X a triangulated category of regular holonomic microdifferential modules. If X is compact, this is a…

We determine the holonomy of generalized Killing spinor covariant derivatives of the form $D= \nabla + \Omega$ on pseudo-Riemannian reductive homogeneous spaces in a purely algebraic and algorithmic way, where $\Omega : TM \rightarrow…

Contact homology for Legendrian submanifolds in standard contact $(2n+1)$-space is rigorously defined using moduli spaces of holomorphic disks with Lagrangian boundary conditions in complex $n$-space. It provides new invariants of…

We show that a contact $(+1)$-surgery along a Legendrian sphere in a flexibly fillable contact manifold ($c_1=0$ if not subcritical) yields a contact manifold that is algebraically overtwisted if the Legendrian's homology class is not…

We prove that if L_0 and L_1 are exact branes intersecting in precisely one point, then there exists a fiber sequence in the infinity-category of Lagrangian cobordisms consisting of L_0, L_1, and a surgery of L_0 with L_1. By combining this…

Let $L$ be a Lagrangian submanifold in a symplectic vector space which is closed, oriented and spin. Using virtual fundamental chains of moduli spaces of nonconstant pseudo-holomorphic disks with boundaries on $L$, one can define a…

We show that up to stabilizations, smooth ribbon cobordisms can be realized by decomposable Lagrangian cobordisms. We also define the notion of stabilization for Lagrangian cobordisms and show that it can be used to find new Lagrangian…

We study collections of exact Lagrangian submanifolds respecting some uniform Riemannian bounds, which we equip with a metric naturally arising in symplectic topology (e.g. the Lagrangian Hofer metric or the spectral metric). We exhibit…

We prove that on a compact Sasakian manifold $(M, \eta, g)$ of dimension $2n+1$, for any $0 \le p \le n$ the wedge product with $\eta \wedge (d\eta)^p$ defines an isomorphism between the spaces of harmonic forms $\Omega^{n-p}_\Delta (M)$…
