A symplectic manifold $M$ is called tame at infinity
if it admits a compatible almost complex structure such that the
corresponding Riemannian metric is complete and geometrically
bounded. Some such condition is necessary to
confine $J$-holomorphic...
Contact homeomorphisms are points in the closure of the
(compactly supported) contactomorphism group in the homeomorphism
group under the C0-topology. Recently, Dimitroglou Rizell and
Sullivan showed that the images of closed Legendrians under...
I will introduce microlocal sheaves on Weinstein manifolds and
survey recent results found in various papers of Laurent Côté,
Chris Kuo, Wenyuan Li, Vivek Shende, and myself.
In Euclidean spaces, star-shaped domains (also known as
Liouville domains) are fundamental objects in modern symplectic
geometry. Several important subclasses have been introduced and
studied, including dynamically convex domains, geometrically...
In this talk, I will describe the global dynamics of the spatial
isosceles three-body problem, using ideas from Embedded Contact
Homology. For energies below the critical level, the flow admits a
disk-like global surface of section bounded by the...
The theory of higher Reidemeister torsion yields characteristic
classes of (stable) fiber bundles of smooth manifolds. We use this
theory to define a new family of invariants for Legendrians in
1-jet spaces which we collectively call Legendrian...
A well-known result of Abouzaid says that the wrapped Fukaya
category of a cotangent bundle is generated by one cotangent fiber.
In the filtered case this is not true, but the filtered Fukaya
category comes with a notion of interleaving distance. We...
The topological entropy of geodesic flows has been extensively
studied since the foundational works of Dinaburg and Manning. It
measures the exponential complexity of the geodesic flow of a
Riemannian manifold, and there are several results...
I will discuss some recent work establishing the orderability of
contact manifolds which arise as a quotient of an aspherically
fillable manifold by a finite group action which extends
(non-freely) to the filling. This generalizes the well known...
Let C be a closed surface and Σ⊂T*C a real exact Lagrangian
surface associated to a spectral curve. In this talk we will first
try to explain the context of this work (e.g., Higgs bundles and
spectral curves). We then construct a homomorphism from...
