We compute the classical and quantum cohomology rings of the twistor spaces of 6-dimensional hyperbolic manifolds and the eigenvalues of quantum multiplication by the first Chern class. Given a half-dimensional totally geodesic submanifold…

We compare two constructions of exact Lagrangian fillings of Legendrian positive braid closures, the Legendrian weaves of Casals-Zaslow, and the decomposable Lagrangian fillings, of Ekholm-Honda-K\'alm\'an and show that they coincide for…

Given a closed, orientable Lagrangian submanifold $L$ in a symplectic manifold $(X, \omega)$, we show that if $L$ is relatively exact then any Hamiltonian diffeomorphism preserving $L$ setwise must preserve its orientation. In contrast to…

We study the topology of Lagrangian submanifolds in standard symplectic vector spaces $\mathbb{C}^n$ using ideas from open-closed string topology. Specifically, for a closed, oriented, spin Lagrangian $L$, we construct a (possibly curved)…

This paper circulated previously in a draft version. Now, upon general request, it is about time to distribute the more detailed (and much longer) version. The main technical issues revolve around the fine structure of the compactification…

We construct the Lagrangian Floer homotopy type, in the exact setting, as a spectrum parameterized over the moduli space of Maslov data. Our primary motivation for this construction is to provide stronger lower bounds for (possibly…

We prove two main results: (a) Suppose $L$ is a closed, embedded, exact special Lagrangian $m$-fold in ${\mathbb C}^m$ for $m\ge 3$ asymptotic at infinity to the union $\Pi_1\cup\Pi_2$ of two transverse special Lagrangian planes…

We use the immersed curves description of bordered Floer homology to study $d$-invariants of double branched covers $\Sigma_2(L)$ of arborescent links $L \subset S^3$. We define a new invariant $\Delta_{sym}$ of bordered…

We consider a field theory with target space being the two dimensional sphere S^2 and defined on the space-time S^3 x R. The Lagrangean is the square of the pull-back of the area form on S^2. It is invariant under the conformal group…

We provide an upper bound on the Lagrangian Hofer distance between equators in the cylinder in terms of the barcode of persistent Floer homology. The bound consists of a weighted sum of the lengths of the finite bars and the spectral…
