Symplectic nilmanifolds with a symplectic non-free $Z_3$-action

This paper expands some of the issues of the paper math.SG/0506449. We introduce a new technique to produce symplectic manifolds, by taking a symplectic non-free action of a finite group on a symplectic manifold and resolving symplectically the singularities of the quotient. We also introduce a new type of Massey product to detect non-formality. This allows to show the first example of a non-formal simply connected compact symplectic manifold of dimension 8.

Seiberg-Witten-Floer homology of a surface times a circle for non-torsion spin-c structures

We determine the Seiberg-Witten-Floer homology groups of the three-manifold which is the product of a surface of genus $g \geq 1$ times the circle, together with its ring structure, for spin-c structures which are non-trivial on the three-manifold. We give applications to computing Seiberg-Witten invariants of four-manifolds which are connected sums along surfaces and also we reprove the higher type adjunction inequalities previously obtained by Oszváth and Szabó.

Generic behavior of asymptotically holomorphic Lefschetz pencils

We study some asymptotic properties of the sequences of symplectic Lefschetz pencils constructed by Donaldson. In particular we prove that the vanishing spheres of these pencils are, for large degree, conjugated under the action of the symplectomorphism group of the fiber. This implies the non-existence of homologically trivial vanishing spheres in these pencils. Moreover we show some basic topological properties of the space of asymptotically holomorphic transverse sections. These properties allow us to define a new set of symplectic invariants of the original symplectic structure.

Lagrangian submanifolds and Lefschetz pencils

Given a Lagrangian submanifold in a symplectic manifold and a Morse function on the submanifold, we show that there is an isotopic Morse function and a symplectic Lefschetz pencil on the manifold extending the Morse function to the whole manifold. From this construction we define a sequence of symplectic invariants classifying the isotopy classes of Lagrangian spheres in a symplectic 4-manifold.

Coherent systems and Brill-Noether theory

Let $C$ be a curve of genus $g\geq 2$. A coherent system on $C$ consists of a pair $(E,V)$ where $E$ is an algebraic vector bundle of rank $n$ and degree $d$ and $V$ is a subspace of dimension $k$ of sections of $E$. The stability of the coherent systems depend on a parameter $τ$. We study the variation of the moduli space of coherent systems when we move the parameter. As an application, we analyse the cases $k=1,2,3$ and $n=2$ explicitly. For small values of $τ$, the moduli space of coherent systems is related to the Brill-Noether loci, the subspaces of the moduli space of stable bundles consisting of those bundles with a prescribed number of sections. The study of coherent systems is applied to find the dimension, irreducibility, and in some cases, the Picard group, of the Brill-Noether loci with $k\leq 3$.

Almost holomorphic embeddings in Grassmannians with applications to singular simplectic submanifolds

We use Donaldson's approximately holomorphic techniques to build embeddings of a closed symplectic manifold with symplectic form of integer class in the grassmannians Gr(r,N). We assure that these embeddings are asymptotically holomorphic in a precise sense. We study first the particular case of embeddings in the projective space $CP^N$ obtaining control on N. The main reason of our study is the construction of singular determinantal submanifolds as the intersection of the embedding with certain ``generalized Schur cycles'' defined on a product of grassmannians. It is shown that the symplectic type of these submanifolds is quite more general that the ones obtained by Auroux as zero sets of approximately holomorphic sections of ``very ample'' vector bundles.

Gromov-Witten invariants of the moduli of bundles on a surface

We produce an equality between the Gromov-Witten invariants of the moduli space M of rank two odd degree stable vector bundles over a Riemann surface $Σ$ and the Donaldson invariants of the algebraic surface $Σ\times P^1$. We discuss on to how extent the Quantum cohomology of M determines its Gromow-Witten invariants. Finally we find the isomorphism between the usual cohomology and the Quantum cohomology for the moduli space M over a Riemann surface of genus g=3.

Donaldson invariants of non-simple type 4-manifolds

We find the shape of the Donaldson invariants of a 4-manifold with b_1=0 and b^+>1, which may be not of simple type. The invariants appear as the q^0 coefficient of a expression given in terms of modular forms (as was predicted by Moore and Witten). We re-express the formula using complete elliptic integrals to prove a conjecture of Kronheimer and Mrowka on the Donaldson invariants of non-simple type 4-manifolds.

Fukaya Floer homology of $Σ\times S^1$ and applications

We determine the Fukaya Floer homology of the three-manifold which is the product of a Riemann surface of genus $g\geq 1$ times the circle. This sets up the groundwork for finding the structure of the Donaldson invariants of four-manifolds not of simple type in the future. We give the following applications: 1) We show that every four-manifold with $b^+>1$ is of finite type. 2) Some results relevant to Donaldson invariants of connected sums along surfaces. 3) We find the invariants of the product of two Riemann surfaces both of genus greater or equal than one.

Basic classes for four-manifolds not of simple type

We extend the notion of basic classes (for the Donaldson invariants) to 4-manifolds with $b^+>1$ which are (potentially) not of simple type or satisfy $b_1 >0$. We also give a structure theorem for the Donaldson invariants of 4-manifolds with $b^+>1$, $b_1>0$ and of strong simple type.

Higher type adjunction inequalities for Donaldson invariants

We prove new adjunction inequalities for embedded surfaces in four-manifolds with non-negative self-intersection number by using the Donaldson invariants. These formulas are completely analogous to the ones obtained by Ozsváth and Szabó using the Seiberg-Witten invariants. To prove these relations, we give a fairly explicit description of the structure of the Fukaya-Floer homology of a surface times a circle. As an aside, we also relate the Floer homology of a surface times a circle with the cohomology of some symmetric products of the surface.

Degree of the divisor of solutions of a differential equation on a projective variety

Using the data schemes developed by Arrondo-Sols-Speiser, we give a rigorous definition of algebraic differential equations on the complex projective space $P^n$. For an algebraic subvariety $S \subseteq P^n$, we present an explicit formula for the degree of the divisor of solutions of a differential equation on $S$ and give some examples of applications. We extend the technique and result to the real case.

Quantum cohomology of the moduli space of stable bundles over a Riemann surface

We determine the quantum cohomology of the moduli space of odd degree rank two stable vector bundles over a Riemann surface $Σ$ of any genus. This work together with dg-ga/9710029 prove that this quantum cohomology is isomorphic to the instanton Floer cohomology of the three manifold $Σ\times S^1$. (Note: There is some overlap with the previous paper: alg-geom/9711013).

First quantum correction for the moduli space of stable bundles over a Riemann surface

We compute some Gromov-Witten invariants of the moduli space of odd degree rank two stable vector bundles over a Riemann surface of any genus. Next we find the first correction term for the quantum product of this moduli space and hence get the two leading terms of the relations satisfied by the natural generators of its quantum cohomology. Finally, we use this information to get a full description of the quantum cohomology of the moduli space when the genus of the Riemann surface is 3.

Ring structure of the Floer Cohomology of $Σ\times S^1$

We give a presentation for the Floer cohomology ring $HF^*(Σ\times S^1)$, where $Σ$ is a Riemann surface of genus bigger than one, which coincides with the conjectural presentation for the quantum cohomology ring of the moduli space of flat SO(3)-connections of odd degree over $Σ$. We study the spectrum of the action of the homology of $Σ$ on the Floer cohomology and prove a physical assumption made by Vafa et al.

Wall-crossing formulae for algebraic surfaces with $q>0$

We extend the ideas of Friedman and Qin (Flips of moduli spaces and transition formulae for Donaldson polynomial invariants of rational surfaces) to find the wall-crossing formulae for the Donaldson invariants of algebraic surfaces with geometrical genus zero, positive irregularity and anticanonical divisor effective, for any wall $ζ$ with $l_ζ=(ζ\sp{2}-p_1)/4$ being zero or one.
