Symplectic surgeries from singularities

Abstract

We describe a variety of symplectic surgeries (not a priori compatible with Kahler structures) which are obtained by combining local Kahler degenerations and resolutions of singularities. The effect of the surgeries is to replace configurations of Lagrangian spheres with symplectic submanifolds. We discuss several examples in detail, relating them to existence questions for symplectic manifolds with $c_1>0, c_1=0, c_1<0$ in four and six dimensions.

We define mathematically the Point-Splitting Perturbative Chern-Simons Theory. The framing anomaly arise directly from the dependence of the configuration space of points on the frame.
