We study Legendrian surfaces determined by cubic planar graphs. Graphs with distinct chromatic polynomials determine surfaces that are not Legendrian isotopic, thus giving many examples of non-isotopic Legendrian surfaces with the same…

This paper belongs to a series devoted to the study of the cohomology of classifying spaces. Generalizing the Weil algebra of a Lie algebra and Kalkman's BRST model, here we introduce the Weil algebra $W(A)$ associated to any Lie algebroid…

For any integer $d$ we introduce a prop $RHra_d$ of oriented ribbon hypergraphs (in which "edges" can connect more than two vertices) and prove that it admits a canonical morphism of props, $$ Holieb_d^\diamond \longrightarrow RHra_d, $$…

The main theme of this paper is the Thomas-Yau conjecture, primarily in the setting of exact, (quantitatively) almost calibrated, unobstructed Lagrangian branes inside Calabi-Yau Stein manifolds. In our interpretation, the conjecture is…

By studying spaces of flow graphs in a closed oriented manifold, we construct operations on its cohomology, parametrized by the homology of the moduli spaces of compact Riemann surfaces with boundary marked points. We show that the…

Let $X$ denote the `conifold smoothing', the symplectic Weinstein manifold which is the complement of a smooth conic in $T^*S^3$, or equivalently the plumbing of two copies of $T^*S^3$ along a Hopf link. Let $Y$ denote the `conifold…

We show: the Floer homology over the Novikov ring of (nonexact!) rational Lagrangians in an (nonexact!) integral symplectic manifold can be computed in terms of exact Lagrangians in an exact filling of the prequantization bundle. As a…

We study 1-parameter families of holomorphic curves with Lagrangian boundary in Calabi-Yau 3-folds. We show that the expected codimension one phenomena can be organized to match the HOMFLYPT skein relations from quantum topology. It follows…

Let $f: X \to S$ be a unipotent degeneration of projective complex manifolds over a disc such that the reduction of the central fibre $Y=f^{-1}(0)$ is simple normal crossings, and let $X_\infty$ be the canonical nearby fibre. Building on…

In the work \cite{Laredo} the author shows that every hypersurface in Euclidean space is locally associated to the unit sphere by a sphere congruence, whose radius function $R$ is a geometric invariant of hypersurface. In this paper we…

We address the following problem: if a Hamiltonian diffeomorphism maps a Lagrangian submanifold $L$ to a small Weinstein neighborhood of $L$, is the image necessarily Hamiltonian isotopic to $L$ inside that neighborhood? On the one hand, we…

We introduce a natural generalisation of holomorphic curves to morphisms of supermanifolds, referred to as holomorphic supercurves. More precisely, supercurves are morphisms from a Riemann surface, endowed with the structure of a…

We establish a structural understanding of the involutive Heegaard Floer homology for all linear combinations of almost-rational (AR) plumbed three-manifolds. We use this to show that the Neumann-Siebenmann invariant is a homology cobordism…

We show that two hypersurfaces in a manifold are related by a sequence of embedded cobordisms if and only if they represent the same homology class. By applying handle decompositions we turn these cobordisms into a sequence of embedded…

Let $M$ be a compact complex manifold, and $D\, \subset\, M$ a reduced normal crossing divisor on it, such that the logarithmic tangent bundle $TM(-\log D)$ is holomorphically trivial. Let ${\mathbb A}$ denote the maximal connected subgroup…

If a Legendrian knot $\Lambda$ in the standard contact 3-sphere bounds an orientable exact Lagrangian surface $\Sigma$ in the standard symplectic 4-ball, then the genus of $\Sigma$ is equal to the slice genus of (the smooth knot underlying)…

Let $M$ be a smooth manifold, smoothly triangulated by a simplicial complex $K$, and $\cA$ a transitive Lie algebroid on $M$. The Lie algebroid restriction of $\cA$ to a simplex $\Delta$ of $K$ is denoted by $\cA^{!!}_{\Delta}$. A piecewise…

The Chekanov-Eliashberg dg-algebra is an algebraic invariant of Legendrian submanifolds of contact manifolds, whose definition recently has been extended to singular Legendrians. We describe a way of constructing simpler models of this…

We derive a numerical criterion for J-holomorphic curves in 4-dimensional symplectic cobordisms to achieve transversality without any genericity assumption. This generalizes results of Hofer-Lizan-Sikorav and Ivashkovich-Shevchishin to…

We use monopole Floer homology for sutured manifolds to construct invariants of Legendrian knots in a contact 3-manifold. These invariants assign to a knot K in Y elements of the monopole knot homology KHM(-Y,K), and they strongly resemble…
