The study of the Vassiliev invariants of Legendrian knots was started by D. Fuchs and S. Tabachnikov who showed that the groups of complex-valued Vassiliev invariants of Legendrian and of framed knots in the standard contact $R^3$ are…
Consistent nontrivial interactions within a special class of covariant mixed-symmetry type tensor gauge fields of degree three are constructed from the deformation of the solution to the master equation combined with specific cohomological…
This paper shows that there are symplectic four-manifolds M with the following property: a single isotopy class of smooth embedded two-spheres in M contains infinitely many Lagrangian submanifolds, no two of which are isotopic as Lagrangian…
For any Legendrian knot or link in $\mathbb{R}^3$, we construct an $L_\infty$ algebra that can be viewed as an extension of the Chekanov-Eliashberg differential graded algebra. The $L_\infty$ structure incorporates information from rational…
We compute the Chekanov-Eliashberg contact homology of what we call the Legendrian closure of a positive braid. We also construct an augmentation for each such link diagram. Then we apply the monodromy techniques established in an earlier…
Given a Legendrian knot $\Lambda \subset \mathbb{R}^3$ and a vertical line dividing the front projection of $\Lambda$ into two halves, we construct a differential graded algebra associated to each half-knot. We then show that one may obtain…
Recent analyses suggest that in TeV scales that will be made accessible at the LHC copious amounts of color scalar parton bound states may be produced. Would this be the case, the scalars would leave long enough to interact and this could…
We prove that the filtered GRID invariants of Legendrian links in link Floer homology, and consequently their associated invariants in the spectral sequence, obstruct decomposable Lagrangian cobordisms in the symplectization of the standard…
We give a combinatorial description of the Legendrian differential graded algebra associated to a Legendrian knot in PxR, where P is a punctured Riemann surface. As an application we show that for any integer k and any homology class h in…
A general approach is presented to describing nonlinear classical Maxwell electrodynamics with conformal symmetry. We introduce generalized nonlinear constitutive equations, expressed in terms of constitutive tensors dependent on…
A new local world volume supersymmetric Lagrangian for the bosonic membrane is presented. The starting Lagrangian is the one constructed by Dolan and Tchrakian with vanishing cosmological constant, with quadratic and quartic derivative…
Linearized Legendrian contact homology (LCH) and bilinearized LCH are important homological invariants for Legendrian submanifolds in contact geometry. For legendrian knots in $\mathbb{R}^3$, very little was previously known about the…
We show that under certain conditions the flyping operation on rational tangles, which produces topologically isotopic tangles, may also produce tangles which are not Legendrian isotopic when viewed in the standard contact structure on…
Real Legendrian subvarieties are classical objects of differential geometry and classical mechanics and they have been studied since antiquity. However, complex Legendrian subvarieties are much more rigid and have more exceptional…
We prove an existence result for exact lagrangian cobordisms between closed legendrians.
We construct monotone Lagrangian tori in the standard symplectic vector space, in the complex projective space and in products of spheres. We explain how to classify these Lagrangian tori up to symplectomorphism and Hamiltonian isotopy, and…
The problem of classification of Legendrian knots (links) up to isotopy in the class of Legendrian embeddings (Legendrian isotopy) naturally leads to the following two subproblems. The first of them is: which combinations of the three…
We define a notion of concordance based on Euler characteristic, and show that it gives rise to a concordance group of links in the three-sphere, which has the concordance group of knots as a direct summand with infinitely generated…
We derive constraints on Lagrangian embeddings in completions of certain stable symplectic fillings with semisimple symplectic cohomologies. Manifolds with these properties can be constructed by generalizing the boundary connected sum…
We define a new algebraic structure called Legendrian racks or racks with Legendrian structure, motivated by the front-projection Reidemeister moves for Legendrian knots. We provide examples of Legendrian racks and use these algebraic…
