Moment Lagrangians, unobstructedness and symplectic groupoids

Abstract

Moment Lagrangian $L_μ$ is a Lagrangian in $T^*G^- \times Y^- \times Y$ associated to a Hamiltonian $G$-space $Y$ with a moment map $μ$. In this paper, we prove that $L_μ$ is tautologically unobstructed under mild assumptions on $Y$. As a key ingredient in the proof, we constructed a new symplectic groupoid structure on $T^*G^- \times Y^- \times Y$ over $G\times Y$ for which $L_μ$ is simultaneously the unit and the fixed locus of the inversion, which might be of independent interest.

On a complex contact manifold, or complex symplectic manifold with weight-1 circle action, we construct a sheaf of stable categories carrying a t-structure which is locally equivalent to a microlocalization of the perverse t-structure.

Fillability obstructions for high-dimensional confoliations

In this paper, we study confoliations in dimensions higher than three, mostly from the perspective of symplectic fillability. Our main result is that Massot-Niederkrüger-Wendl's bordered Legendrian open book, an object that obstructs the weak symplectic fillability of contact manifolds, admits a generalization for confoliations equipped with symplectic data. Applications include the non-fillability of the product of an overtwisted contact manifold and a class of symplectic manifolds, and the fact that Bourgeois contact structures associated with overtwisted contact manifolds admit no weak symplectic fillings for which the symplectic structure restricts at the boundary to a positive generator of the second cohomology of the torus factor. In addition, along the lines of the original 3-dimensional work of Eliashberg and Thurston, we give a new definition of approximation and deformation of confoliations by contact structures and describe some natural examples.

Exact fillings using universal covers in Floer theory

We study exact fillings of Legendrians and contact manifolds using Floer theory of universal covers. We prove vanishing results on wrapped Floer homology of the universal cover and symplectic (co)homology with $k[π_1]$ coefficients by using lifted versions of Ritter's TQFT operations. We use these results to show that an exact Maslov zero Lagrangian filling of the standard Legendrian $Λ_{std}$ in any Liouville filling of $(S^{2n-1},ξ_{std})$ is diffeomorphic to a ball in dimension at least 5. We show that the existence of a topological simple exact filling $W$ with vanishing symplectic homology for a dynamically convex contact manifold $M^{2n-1}$ reveals information about homotopy groups of $W$ and $M.$ We also strengthen a theorem of Zhou for ADC-contact manifolds as an application of universal covers.
