We introduce and discuss notions of regularity and flexibility for Lagrangian manifolds with Legendrian boundary in Weinstein domains. There is a surprising abundance of flexible Lagrangians. In turn, this leads to new constructions of…
In this article, we provide an introduction to an algorithm for constructing Weinstein handlebodies for complements of certain smoothed toric divisors using explicit coordinates and a simple example. This article also serves to welcome…
The aim of this note is to show that the Lagrangian cobordism group of a Weinstein sector is isomorphic to its middle-dimensional singular cohomology. As an application, a geometric description of Viterbo restriction for cobordism groups is…
We introduce LOT Wassmap, a computationally feasible algorithm to uncover low-dimensional structures in the Wasserstein space. The algorithm is motivated by the observation that many datasets are naturally interpreted as probability…
By analogy with Weinstein's neighbourhood theorem, we prove a uniqueness result for symplectic neighbourhoods of a large family of stratified subspaces. This result generalizes existing constructions, e.g., in the search for exotic…
We prove an existence h-principle for regular Lagrangians with Legendrian boundary in arbitrary Weinstein domains of dimension at least six; this extends a previous result of Eliashberg, Ganatra, and the author for Lagrangians in flexible…
We prove that geometric intersections between Weinstein handles induce algebraic relations in the wrapped Fukaya category, which we use to study the Grothendieck group. We produce a surjective map from middle-dimensional singular cohomology…
A comparative analysis of two different versions of the Legendre transformation is presented. We provide an almost complete although somewhat superficial review of the geometric background for analytical mechanics. Complete coordinate…
We propose a new formulation and learning strategy for computing the Wasserstein geodesic between two probability distributions in high dimensions. By applying the method of Lagrange multipliers to the dynamic formulation of the optimal…
We describe an operation which modifies a Lagrangian submanifold $L$ in a symplectic manifold $(M, \omega)$ such as to produce a new immersed Lagrangian submanifold $L'$, which as a smooth manifold is obtained by surgery along a framed…
We prove a Seifert-van Kampen theorem for Legendrian submanifolds and exact Lagrangian cobordisms, and use it to calculate the change in the DGA caused by critical Legendrian ambient surgery.
Using the microlocal theory of sheaves, we associate a category to each Weinstein manifold. By constructing a microlocal specialization functor, we show that exact Lagrangians give objects in our category, and that the category is invariant…
Discretizations of Langevin diffusions provide a powerful method for sampling and Bayesian inference. However, such discretizations require evaluation of the gradient of the potential function. In several real-world scenarios, obtaining…
Recently, the Wasserstein loss function has been proven to be effective when applied to deterministic full-waveform inversion (FWI) problems. We consider the application of this loss function in Bayesian FWI so that the uncertainty can be…
The Whitney immersion is a Lagrangian sphere inside the four-dimensional symplectic vector space which has a single transverse double point of Whitney self-intersection number $+1.$ This Lagrangian also arises as the Weinstein skeleton of…
Using Legendrian immersions and, in particular, Legendre curves in odd dimensional spheres and anti De Sitter spaces, we provide a method of construction of new examples of Hamiltonian-minimal Lagrangian submanifolds in complex projective…
We study Weinstein 4-manifolds which admit Lagrangian skeleta given by attaching disks to a surface along a collection of simple closed curves. In terms of the curves describing one such skeleton, we describe surgeries that preserve the…
In this short note we observe that the boundary of a properly embedded compact exact Lagrangian sub-manifolds in a subcritical Weinstein domain $X$ necessarily admits Reeb chords. The existence of this Reeb chords either follows from an…
This note explores the use of Newton polytopes in the study of Lagrangian fillings of Legendrian submanifolds. In particular, we show that Newton polytopes associated to augmented values of Reeb chords can distinguish infinitely many…
We present a novel method for drawing samples from Gibbs distributions with densities of the form $\pi(x) \propto \exp(-U(x))$. The method accelerates the unadjusted Langevin algorithm by introducing an inertia term similar to Polyak's…
