We show that the action of the mapping class group on bordered Floer homology in the second to extremal spin-structure is faithful. This paper is designed partly as an introduction to the subject, and much of it should be readable without a background in Floer homology.
In this short note we give an elementary combinatorial argument, showing that the conjecture of J. Fernández de Bobadilla, I. Luengo-Velasco, A. Melle-Hernández and A. Némethi [Proc. London Math. Soc. 92 (2006), 99-138, Conjecture 1] follows from Theorem 5.4 of Brodzik and Livingston [arXiv:1304.1062] in the case of rational cuspidal curves with two critical points.
Let be a surface with a symplectic form, let be a symplectomorphism of , and let be the mapping torus of . We show that the dimensions of moduli spaces of embedded pseudoholomorphic curves in , with cylindrical ends asymptotic to periodic orbits of or multiple covers thereof, are bounded from above by an additive relative index. We deduce some compactness results for these moduli spaces. This paper establishes some of the foundations for a program with Michael Thaddeus, to understand...
Nous catégorifions explicitement les coefficients de la matrice de la représentation de Burau en utilisant des méthodes géométriques élémentaires. Nous montrons que cette catégorification est fidèle dans le sens où elle détecte la tresse triviale.
This paper provides an introduction to the basics of Heegaard Floer homology with some emphasis on the hat theory and to the contact geometric invariants in the theory. The exposition is designed to be comprehensible to people without any prior knowledge of the subject.
For a Morse function on a compact oriented manifold , we show that has more critical points than the number required by the Morse inequalities if and only if there exists a certain class of link in whose components have nontrivial linking number, such that the minimal value of on one of the components is larger than its maximal value on the other. Indeed we characterize the precise number of critical points of in terms of the Betti numbers of and the behavior of with respect to links....
We extend the constructions and results of Damian to get topological obstructions to the existence of closed monotone Lagrangian embeddings into the cotangent bundle of a space which is the total space of a fibration over the circle.
