We prove the existence of infinitely many periodic points of symplectomorphisms isotopic to the identity if they admit at least one (non-contractible) hyperbolic periodic orbit and satisfy some condition on its flux. The obtained periodic…

Gromov's compactness theorem for pseudo-holomorphic curves is a foundational result in symplectic geometry. It controls the compactness of the moduli space of pseudo-holomorphic curves with bounded area in a symplectic manifold. In this…

The construction of manifold structures and fundamental classes on the (compactified) moduli spaces appearing in Gromov-Witten theory is a long-standing problem. Up until recently, most successful approaches involved the imposition of…

We introduce new invariants associated to collections of compact subsets of a symplectic manifold. They are defined through an elementary-looking variational problem involving Poisson brackets. The proof of the non-triviality of these…

In this short note we show how Dubrovin's integrable hierarchies, defined using the Gromov-Witten theory of a closed symplectic manifold, generalizes to Hamiltonian Floer theory. In particular, we show how the required generalization of the…

Given a Liouville manifold $M$, we introduce an invariant of $M$ that we call the Heegaard Floer symplectic cohomology $SH^*_\kappa(M)$ for any $\kappa \ge 1$ that coincides with the symplectic cohomology for $\kappa=1$. Writing $\hat{M}$…

Following \cite{citeSavelyevVirtualMorsetheoryon$Omega$Ham$(Momega)$.}, we develop here a connection between Morse theory for the (positive) Hofer length functional $L: \Omega \text {Ham}(M, \omega) \to \mathbb{R}$, with Gromov-Witten/Floer…

We extend the Cohen-Jones-Segal construction of stable homotopy types associated to flow categories of Morse-Smale functions $f$ to the setting where $f$ is equivariant under a finite group action and is Morse but no longer Morse-Smale.…

Pseudo-holomorphic curves in symplectizations, as introduced by Hofer in 1993, and then developed by Hofer, Wysocki, and Zehnder, have brought new insights to Hamiltonian dynamics, providing new approaches to some classical questions in…

In this paper we first show that the necessary condition introduced in our previous paper is also a sufficient condition for a path to be a geodesic in the group $\Ham^c(M)$ of compactly supported Hamiltonian symplectomorphisms. This…

In 1995 the author, Jones, and Segal introduced the notion of "Floer homotopy theory". The proposal was to attach a (stable) homotopy type to the geometric data given in a version of Floer homology. More to the point, the question was…

We establish a criterion that ensures a bounded almost complex curve in a bounded almost complex 4-manifold minimizes genus amongst all smooth surfaces that share its homology class and the transverse link on its boundary. An immediate…

In this note we make several observations concerning symplectic fillings. In particular we show that a (strongly or weakly) semi-fillable contact structure is fillable and any filling embeds as a symplectic domain in a closed symplectic…

In this article, the authors review what the Floer homology is and what it does in symplectic geometry both in the closed string and in the open string context. In the first case, the authors will explain how the chain level Floer theory…

Branched covers of orbit cylinders are the basic examples of holomorphic curves studied in symplectic field theory. Since all curves with Fredholm index one can never be regular for any choice of cylindrical almost complex structure, we…

The purpose of this paper is to establish several new results about the Hodge theory of Lagrangian fibrations on (not necessarily compact) holomorphic symplectic manifolds. Let $M$ be a holomorphic symplectic manifold of dimension $2n$ that…

In this paper, we generalize construction of Seidel's long exact sequence of Lagrangian Floer cohomology to that of compact Lagrangian submanifolds with vanishing Malsov class on general Calabi-Yau manifolds. We use the framework of…

Let $(S,\omega)$ be a closed connected oriented surface whose genus $l$ is at least two equipped with a symplectic form. Then we show the vanishing of the cup product of the fluxes of commuting symplectomorphisms. This result may be…

We develop the theory of $J$-holomorphic discs in Hilbert spaces with almost complex structures. As an aplication, we prove a version of Gromov's symplectic non-squeezing theorem for Hilbert spaces. It can be applied to short-time…

A famous result of Jurgen Moser states that a symplectic form on a compact manifold cannot be deformed within its cohomology class to an inequivalent symplectic form. It is well known that this does not hold in general for noncompact…
