We consider the formal prolate spheroid differential operator on a finite symmetric interval and describe all its self-adjoint boundary conditions. Only one of these boundary conditions corresponds to a self-adjoint differential operator…
This work is a continuation of the program initiated in [arXiv:2311.18302]. We show how one can define novel gauge-theoretic (holomorphic) Floer homologies of seven, six, and five-manifolds, from the physics of a topologically-twisted 8d…
We construct cobordism maps for the \textit{minus} version of instanton knot homology associated to a \textit{specially decorated} knot cobordisms of arbitrary genus between two null-homologous knots in closed oriented $3$-manifolds. As an…
We extend the definition of Lagrangian quantum homology to monotone Lagrangian cobordism and establish its general algebraic properties. In particular we develop a relative version of Lagrangian quantum homology associated to a cobordism…
The Floer cohomology and the Fukaya category are not defined in general. Indeed, while the issue of obstructions can be theoretically addressed by introducing bounding cochains, the actual existence of even one such bounding cochain is…
In the usual setup, the grading on Floer homology is relative: it is unique only up to adding a constant. "Graded Lagrangian submanifolds" are Lagrangian submanifolds with a bit of extra structure, which fixes the ambiguity in the grading.…
A boundary value problem is commonly associated with constraints imposed on a system at its boundary. We advance here an alternative point of view treating the system as interacting "boundary" and "interior" subsystems. This view is…
In this contribution, we recall the derivation of the anti bounce back boundary condition for the D2Q9 lattice Boltzmann scheme. We recall various elements of the state of the art for anti bounce back applied to linear heat and acoustics…
We apply the methods recently developed for computation of type IIA disk instantons using mirror symmetry to a large class of D-branes wrapped over Lagrangian cycles of non-compact Calabi-Yau 3-folds. Along the way we clarify the notion of…
Floer invented his theory in the mid eighties in order to prove the Arnol'd conjectures on the number of fixed point of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms and Lagrangian intersections. Over the last thirty years, many versions of Floer homology…
The Hilbert-Palatini (HP) Lagrangian of general relativity being written in terms of selfdual and antiselfdual variables contains Ashtekar Lagrangian (which governs the dynamics of the selfdual sector of the theory on condition that the…
Subjecting the SU(2) Yang--Mills system to azimuthal symmetries in both the $x-y$ and the $z-t$ planes results in a residual subsystem described by a U(1) Higgs like model with two complex scalar fields on the quarter plane. The resulting…
We construct instanton Floer homology for lens spaces $L(p,q)$. As an application, we prove that $X = \CP^2 # \CP^2$ does not admit a decomposition $X = X_1 \cup X_2$. Here $X_1$ and $X_2$ are oriented, simply connected, non-spin…
The multisymplectic formalism of field theories developed by many mathematicians over the last fifty years is extended in this work to deal with manifolds that have boundaries. In particular, we develop a multisymplectic framework for first…
This (partially expository) paper discusses Lagrangian Floer cohomology in the context of Lefschetz fibrations, with emphasis on the algebraic structures encountered there. In addition to the well-known directed A_infinity algebras which…
In his 1989 paper, Floer established a connection between holomorphic strips with boundary on a Lagrangian $L$ and a small Hamiltonian push-off $L_{f}$, and gradient flow lines for the function $f$. The present paper studies the compactness…
In this paper, we study the 't Hooft type instantons in eight dimensions, which satisfy the (anti)self-dual equations $F\wedge F=\pm\ast_8F\wedge F$. Using various designs of such instantons, we find new soliton solutions to the low-energy…
We calculate the equivariant instanton Floer homology, in the sense of Miller Eismeier, for the trivial $SO(3)$-bundle over the binary polyhedral spaces with coefficients in a PID $R$ for which $2\in R$ is invertible. Along the way we…
In this article, we analyze the Pontryagin model adopting different geometric-covariant approaches. In particular, we focus on the manner in which boundary conditions must be imposed on the background manifold in order to reproduce an…
We study holomorphic discs with boundary on a Lagrangian submanifold $L$ in a Kaehler manifold admitting a Hamiltonian action of a group $K$ which has $L$ as an orbit. We prove various transversality and classification results for such…
