We develop the foundation of the complex symplectic geometry of Lagrangian subvarieties in a hyperkahler manifold. We establish a characterization, a Chern number inequality, topological and geometrical properties of Lagrangian…
Let M be a compact symplectic manifold, and L be a closed Lagrangian submanifold which can be lifted to a Legendrian submanifold in the contactization of M. For any Legendrian deformation of L satisfying some given conditions, we get a new…
Embedded Lagrangian cobordisms between Legendrian submanifolds are produced from isotopy, spinning, and handle attachment constructions that employ the technique of generating families. Moreover, any Legendrian with a generating family has…
In this article we define Lagrangian concordance of Legendrian knots, the analogue of smooth concordance of knots in the Legendrian category. In particular we study the relation of Lagrangian concordance under Legendrian isotopy. The focus…
We study a cone structure ${\mathcal C} \subset {\mathbb P} D$ on a holomorphic contact manifold $(M, D \subset T_M)$ such that each fiber ${\mathcal C}_x \subset {\mathbb P} D_x$ is isomorphic to a Legendrian submanifold of fixed…
We discuss the interplay between lagrangian distributions and connections in symplectic geometry, beginning with the traditional case of symplectic manifolds and then passing to the more general context of poly- and multisymplectic…
Many interesting spaces --- including all positroid strata and wild character varieties --- are moduli of constructible sheaves on a surface with microsupport in a Legendrian link. We show that the existence of cluster structures on these…
We associate a combinatorial object to sequences of point blow-ups over perfect fields, the weighted directed graph, and another one to the composition of all blow-ups, which we call associated sequential morphisms, the $d-$ary intersection…
We study different notions of blow-up of a scheme X along a subscheme Y, depending on the datum of an embedding of X into an ambient scheme. The two extremes in this theory are the ordinary blow-up, corresponding to the identity, and the…
We derive constraints on Lagrangian concordances from Legendrian submanifolds of the standard contact sphere admitting exact Lagrangian fillings. More precisely, we show that such a concordance induces an isomorphism on the level of…
We develop the notion of Lagrangian distribution on scattering manifolds, meaning on the compactified cotangent bundle, which is a manifold with corners equipped with a scattering symplectic structure. In particular, we study the notion of…
This is mainly a survey article on the recent development of the theory of graph-like Legendrian unfoldings and its applications. The notion of big Legendrian submanifolds was introduced by Zakalyukin for describing the wave front…
In this short note we discuss high-dimensional examples of Legendrian submanifolds of the standard contact Euclidean space with an infinite number of exact Lagrangian fillings up to Hamiltonian isotopy. They are obtained from the examples…
We investigate an equivalence relation on Legendrian knots in the standard contact three-space defined by the existence of an interpolating zigzag of Lagrangian cobordisms. We compare this relation, restricted to genus-$0$ surfaces, to…
Let $\Lambda, \Lambda'$ be a pair of closed Legendrian submanifolds in a closed contact manifold $(Y, \xi = Ker(\alpha))$ related by a Legendrian cobordism $W\subset (\mathbb{C}\times Y, \tilde{\xi}=Ker(-y dx +\alpha))$. In this note, we…
Lie algebroids, singular foliations, and Dirac structures are closely related objects. We examine the relation between their pullbacks under maps satisfying a constant rank or transversality assumption. A special case is given by blowdown…
Observing the relics of collisions between bubble universes would provide direct evidence for the existence of an eternally inflating Multiverse; the non-observation of such events can also provide important constraints on inflationary…
We study the relation of an embedded Lagrangian cobordism between two closed, orientable Legendrian submanifolds of R^{2n+1}. More precisely, we investigate the behavior of the Thurston-Bennequin number and (linearized) Legendrian contact…
We discuss basic concepts and properties of diffractive phenomena in soft hadron collisions and in deep-inelastic scattering at low Bjorken-x. The paper is not a review of the rapidly developing field but presents an attempt to show in…
We exploit a natural correspondence between holomorphic $(2,3,5)$-distributions and nondegenerate lines on holomorphic contact manifolds of dimension $5$ to present a new perspective in the study of symmetries of $(2,3,5)$-distributions.…
