We define Symplectic cohomology groups for a class of symplectic fibrations with closed symplectic base and convex at infinity fiber. The crucial geometric assumption on the fibration is a negativity property reminiscent of negative…
The Arakelov--Parshin rigidity theorem implies that a holomorphic Lefschetz fibration $\pi: M \to S^2$ of genus $g \geq 2$ admits only finitely many holomorphic sections $\sigma:S^2 \to M$. We show that an analogous finiteness theorem does…
We construct universal Lefschetz fibrations, defined in analogy with classical universal bundles. We also introduce the cobordism groups of Lefschetz fibrations, and we see how these groups are quotients of the singular bordism groups via…
A generalized complex structure is called stable if its defining anticanonical section vanishes transversally, on a codimension-two submanifold. Alternatively, it is a zero elliptic residue symplectic structure in the elliptic tangent…
To a simple polarized hyperplane arrangement (not necessarily cyclic) $\mathbb{V}$, one can associate a stopped Liouville manifold (equivalently, a Liouville sector) $\left(M(\mathbb{V}),\xi\right)$, where $M(\mathbb{V})$ is the complement…
We study the partially wrapped Fukaya category of a surface with boundary with an action of a group of order two. Inspired by skew-group algebras and categories, we define the notion of a skew-group $A_\infty$-category and let it play the…
This paper continues previous work of the author with Perutz, in which the `small' version of Seidel's relative Fukaya category of a smooth complex projective variety relative to a normal crossings divisor was constructed, under a…
We discuss right fibrations in the $\infty$-categorical context of Segal objects in a category V and prove some basic results about these.
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…
A class of partially wrapped Fukaya categories in $T^* N$ are proven to be well defined and then studied. In the case of $N$ diffeomorphic to $\mathbb{R}^m \times \mathbb{T}^n$, it is shown that these categories provide homological mirrors…
A sequel to arXiv:1111.1460, this paper elaborates on some of the themes in the above paper. Connections to Symplectic Field Theory (SFT) and mirror symmetry are explored.
$A_\infty$ categories are a mathematical structure that appears in topological field theory, string topology, and symplectic topology. This paper studies the cyclic homology of a Calabi-Yau $A_\infty$ category, and shows that it is…
We show that there exists a non-trivial simplified broken Lefschetz fibration which has infinitely many homotopy classes of sections. We also construct a non-trivial simplified broken Lefschetz fibration which has a section with…
This is the first of a series of papers in preparation on the Fukaya-type $A_\infty$ category generated by tame Legendrian submanifolds, called the Legendrian contact instanton Fukaya category (abbreviated as the Legendrian CI Fukaya…
To a conical symplectic resolution with Hamiltonian torus action, Braden--Proudfoot--Licata--Webster associate a category O, defined using deformation quantization (DQ) modules. It has long been expected, though not stated precisely in the…
We show that hyperelliptic symplectic Lefschetz fibrations are symplectically birational to two-fold covers of rational ruled surfaces, branched in a symplectically embedded surface. This reduces the classification of genus 2 fibrations to…
In this paper we use recollements to investigate partially wrapped Fukaya categories of surfaces with marked points. In particular, we show that cutting surfaces gives rise to recollements of the corresponding partially wrapped Fukaya…
Fukaya categories are deep and rich invariants of symplectic manifolds which are notoriously difficult to compute explicitly. In the case of surfaces, however, the situation is simple, combinatorial,and is very well understood (at least by…
Auroux, Donaldson and Katzarkov introduced broken Lefschetz fibrations as a generalization of Lefshcetz fibrations in order to describe near-symplectic 4-manifolds. We first study monodromy representations of higher sides of genus-1…
Categorical enumerative invariants of a Calabi-Yau category, encoded as the partition function of the associated closed string field theory (SFT), conjecturally equal Gromov-Witten invariants when applied to Fukaya categories. Part of this…
