We give finiteness results and some classifications up to diffeomorphism of minimal strong symplectic fillings of Seifert fibered spaces over S^2 satisfying certain conditions, with a fixed natural contact structure. In some cases we can…

Covariant (polysymplectic) Hamiltonian field theory is formulated as a particular Lagrangian theory on a polysymplectic phase space that enables one to quantize it in the framework of familiar quantum field theory.

Let $M$ be a smooth projective variety and $\mathbf{D}$ an ample normal crossings divisor. From topological data associated to the pair $(M, \mathbf{D})$, we construct, under assumptions on Gromov-Witten invariants, a series of…

We provide a systematic method to deduce the global form of flavor symmetry groups in 4d N=2 theories obtained by compactifying 6d N=(2,0) superconformal field theories (SCFTs) on a Riemann surface carrying regular punctures and possibly…

We present an array of new calculations in Lagrangian Floer theory which demonstrate observations relating to symplectic reduction, grading periodicity, and the closed-open map. We also illustrate Perutz's symplectic Gysin sequence and the…

The $(D+1)$-dimensional symmetry topological field theory (SymTFT$_{D+1}$) of a $D$-dimensional absolute quantum field theory (QFT$_D$) provides a topological characterization of symmetry data. In this framework, the SymTFT comes equipped…

Self-consistent field theory (SCFT) is one of the useful methods to simulate phase separated structures of multi-component polymer systems. In this article, we propose an SCFT for semiflexible polymer melts, where the basic equations for…

The graph Fourier transform (GFT) is a fundamental tool in graph signal processing and has recently been extended to the graph fractional Fourier transform (GFRFT). Existing sampling methods in the GFRFT domain are primarily designed to…

The purpose of this paper is to give a survey of the various versions of Floer homology for manifolds with contact type boundary that have so far appeared in the literature. Under the name of ``Symplectic homology'' or ``Floer homology for…

A (biased and incomplete) review of the status of the theory of symplectic connections on supermanifolds is presented. Also, some comments regarding Fedosov's technique of quantization are made.

We provide an introductory exposition to the sheaf topos theoretic description of classical field theory motivated by the rigorous description of both $\bf{(i)}$ the variational calculus of (infinite dimensional) field-theoretic spaces, and…

In many cases the symmetry structure of quantum field theories can be neatly encoded into their associated symmetry topological field theory (SymTFT), a topological field theory in one dimension higher. For geometrically engineered QFTs in…

In the Lagrangian approach to 2-dimensional sigma models, B-fields and D-branes contribute topological terms to the action of worldsheets of both open and closed strings. We show that these terms naturally fit into a 2-dimensional, smooth…

This survey wants to give a short introduction to the transversality problem in symplectic field theory and motivate to approach it using the new Fredholm theory by Hofer, Wysocki and Zehnder. With this it should serve as a lead-in for the…

In this Letter, we demonstrate that the Symmetry Topological Field Theory (SymTFT) associated to a Quantum Field Theory (QFT) with continuous non-abelian $G$-flavor symmetry is a $BF$-theory with gauge group $G$. We show that gauging…

This is a survey on the mixed spin P-fields (MSP fields for short) theory which provides a platform to understand the phase transition between Gromov-Witten theory of quintic CY 3-folds and Landau-Ginzburg theory of the corresponding…

Kinetic Field Theory (KFT) is a statistical field theory for an ensemble of point-like classical particles in or out of equilibrium. We review its application to cosmological structure formation. Beginning with the construction of the…

We show that simply connected contact manifolds that are subcritically Stein fillable have a unique symplectically aspherical filling up to diffeomorphism. Various extensions to manifolds with non-trivial fundamental group are discussed.…

This is a mixture of survey article and research anouncement. We discuss Instanton Floer homology for 3 manifolds with boundary. We also discuss a categorification of the Lagrangian Floer theory using the unobstructed immersed Lagrangian…

We describe the symplectic reduction construction for the physical phase space in gauge theory and apply it for the BF theory. Symplectic reduction theorem allows us to rewrite the same phase space as a quotient by the gauge group action,…
