Abstract

Categorical symplectic geometry is the study of a rich collection of invariants of symplectic manifolds, including the Fukaya $A_\infty$-category, Floer cohomology, and symplectic cohomology. Beginning with work of Wehrheim and Woodward in the late 2000s, several authors have developed techniques for functorial manipulation of these invariants. We survey these functorial structures, including Wehrheim-Woodward's quilted Floer cohomology and functors associated to Lagrangian correspondences, Fukaya's alternate approach to defining functors between Fukaya $A_\infty$-categories, and the second author's ongoing construction of the symplectic $(A_\infty,2)$-category. In the last section, we describe a number of direct and indirect applications of this circle of ideas, and propose a conjectural version of the Barr-Beck Monadicity Criterion in the context of the Fukaya $A_\infty$-category.

Extended Future Tube Conjecture for Unipotent Subgroups

Let $\Omega$ be the Lorentz future cone in $\mathbb{R}^{d+1}$ with respect to the Lorentz product and let $T^M$ be the $M$-fold product of the future tube $T=\mathbb{R}^{d+1}+i\Omega$. The Lorentz group $\mathrm{SO}_0(1,d)$ acts diagonally on $T^M$, and its complexification $\mathrm{SO}(1,d)^\mathbb{C}$ acts on $\mathbb{C}^{(d+1)\times M}$. We prove that the domain $G^\mathbb{C}\cdot T^M$ is a Stein manifold for any connected unipotent subgroup $G$ of $\mathrm{SO}_0(1,d)$.

The First Correction Term in the Asymptotic Expansion of Bohr--Sommerfeld Lagrangian States

Let $\Lambda$ be a compact Bohr--Sommerfeld Lagrangian submanifold of a compact K\"ahler manifold equipped with a holomorphic prequantum line bundle. We study the asymptotic expansion of the Lagrangian states associated with $\Lambda$. In particular, we compute explicitly the first nontrivial correction term and show that it is expressed in terms of geometric invariants of the ambient K\"ahler manifold and the Lagrangian submanifold, including their scalar curvatures, the second fundamental form, and the mean curvature. As a consequence, we obtain the corresponding second-order asymptotic formula for the $L^2$-norm of the Lagrangian states.

Classification of Legendrian doubles and suspensions

We define a construction of Legendrians inside contact manifolds that arise by doubling an exact Lagrangian filling in the page of an open book decomposition. This can be seen as a generalization of a previous construction by Courte and Ekholm to arbitrary open books. These Legendrians, called Legendrian doubles, are shown to admit regular flexible exact Lagrangian fillings, and they are thus classified up to Legendrian isotopy by classical data. Finally, we show that the Legendrian suspension construction, as defined by Arikan and the author in previous work,-this is a Legendrian contained inside a page of an open book that is obtained by using Seidel's suspension of Lefschetz fibrations- is a Legendrian double.
