This paper is the last in a series of three papers which investigate pseudoholomorphic strips in the symplectisation of a three dimensional closed contact manifold with a mixed boundary condition. We will prove a compactness and an…
A symplectic form is called hyperbolic if its pull-back to the universal cover is a differential of a bounded one-form. The present paper is concerned with the properties and constructions of manifolds admitting hyperbolic symplectic forms.…
In this paper, we investigate a relation between rational blowdown surgery and minimal symplectic fillings of a given Seifert 3-manifold with a canonical contact structure. Consequently, we determine a necessary and sufficient condition for…
As shown by Etnyre and Honda in [EH], every contact 3-manifold admits infinitely many concave symplectic fillings that are mutually not symplectomorphic and not related by blow ups. In this note we refine this result in the toric setting by…
We establish the method of holomorphic handle attaching to the strongly pseudoconcave boundary of a complex surface. We use this for proving the following statements: (1) every closed connected oriented contact 3-manifold can be filled as…
We prove that a Weinstein domain symplectically embedded in a closed symplectic manifold always admits symplectic hypersurfaces in its complement, possibly after a deformation. As a consequence, we obtain an obstruction for a closed…
Motivated by the programmes initiated by Taubes and Perutz, we study the geometry of near-symplectic 4-manifolds, i.e., manifolds equipped with a closed 2-form which is symplectic outside a union of embedded 1-dimensional submanifolds, and…
In the breakthrough paper [V. Mu\~noz, A Smale-Barden manifold admitting K-contact but not Sasakian structure, 2024, 10.4171/JEMS/1496], it is constructed the first example of a simply connected compact 5-manifold (aka.\ Smale-Barden…
We prove that every closed, connected contact 3-manifold can be obtained from the 3-sphere with its standard contact structure by contact surgery of coefficient plus or minus 1 along a Legendrian link. As a corollary, we derive a result of…
The Darboux theorem in symplectic geometry implies that any two points in a connected symplectic manifold have neighbourhoods symplectomorphic to each other. The impossibility of such a theorem in the more general multisymplectic framework…
We show that only finitely many links in a closed 3-manifold share the same complement, up to twists along discs and annuli. Using the same techniques, we prove that by adding 2-handles on the same link we get only finitely many smooth…
Given an exact symplectic cobordism $(X, \lambda)$ between contact $3$-manifolds $(Y_+, \lambda_+)$ and $(Y_-, \lambda_-)$ with no elliptic Reeb orbits up to a certain action, we define a chain map from the embedded contact homology (ECH)…
We introduce a procedure for gluing Weinstein domains along Weinstein subdomains. By gluing along flexible subdomains, we show that any finite collection of high-dimensional Weinstein domains with the same topology are Weinstein subdomains…
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.…
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…
The cobordism ring of symplectic manifolds defined by V.L. Ginzburg is shown to be isomorphic to the Pontrjagin ring of complex-oriented manifolds with free circle actions. This suggests an interpretation of the formal group law of complex…
The contact invariant is an element in the monopole Floer homology groups of an oriented closed three manifold canonically associated to a given contact structure. A non-vanishing contact invariant implies that the original contact…
This paper studies complex cobordisms between compact, three dimensional, strictly pseudoconvex Cauchy-Riemann manifolds. Suppose the complex cobordism is given by a complex 2-manifold X with one pseudoconvex and one pseudoconcave end. We…
We construct a rational homotopy-theoretic model for a classifying space of locally conformally symplectic structures on four-manifolds, and use it to definition a cobordism category of three-manifolds `anchored' by principal $\Omega^2 S^2$…
We extend Donaldson's asymptotically holomorphic techniques to symplectic orbifolds. More precisely, given a symplectic orbifold such that the symplectic form defines an integer cohomology class, we prove that there exist sections of large…
