This approach was the basis of Manolescu's 2013 construction of Pin (2)-equivariant SeibergWitten Floer homology, with which he disproved the Triangulation Conjecture for manifolds of dimension 5 and higher. {\displaystyle A_{\infty }} In this special case there is a purely combinatorial approach toLagrangian Floer homology which was rst developed by de Silva [6]. How to prove Gromov's nonsqueezing theorem, assuming some facts Equivalently, the generators of the chain complex are translation-invariant solutions to SeibergWitten equations (known as monopoles) on the product of a 3-manifold and the real line, and the differential counts solutions to the SeibergWitten equations on the product of a three-manifold and the real line, which are asymptotic to invariant solutions at infinity and negative infinity. The resulting Morse homology is compared to that of, We show the Chas-Sullivan product (on the homology of the free loop space of a Riemannian manifold) is related to the Morse index of its closed geodesics. In the Heegaard splitting, In situations where cylindrical contact homology makes sense, it may be seen as the (slightly modified) Morse homology of the action functional on the free loop space, which sends a loop to the integral of the contact form alpha over the loop. {\displaystyle \Sigma } This appears naturally from the Chern-Simons functional on . (2/19) Begin explaining how to generalize from the Morse homology Its involvement has been crucial in the recent achievements in symplectic geometry and in particular in the proof of the Arnold conjecture. The AtiyahFloer conjecture connects the instanton Floer homology with the Lagrangian intersection Floer homology. of much of the theory. More generally, it may be defined with respect to any stable Hamiltonian structure on the 3-manifold; like contact structures, stable Hamiltonian structures define a nonvanishing vector field (the Reeb vector field), and Hutchings and Taubes have proven an analogue of the Weinstein conjecture for them, namely that they always have closed orbits (unless they are mapping tori of a 2-torus). There are several equivalent Floer homologies associated to closed three-manifolds. . The semi-positive condition means that one of the following holds (note that the three cases are not disjoint): The quantum cohomology group of symplectic manifold M can be defined as the tensor products of the ordinary cohomology with Novikov ring , i.e. See papers by Salamon and coauthors. These are related to the invariants for closed 3-manifolds by gluing formulas for the Floer homology of a 3-manifold described as the union along the boundary of two 3-manifolds with boundary. /ProcSet [/PDF /Text] The SFH of a Hamiltonian symplectomorphism also has a pair of pants product that is a deformed cup product equivalent to quantum cohomology. It may be seen as an extension of Taubes's Gromov invariant, known to be equivalent to the SeibergWitten invariant, from closed symplectic 4-manifolds to certain non-compact symplectic 4-manifolds (namely, a contact three-manifold cross R). rest of the proof of Gromov non-squeezing. The above condition of semi-positive and the compactness of symplectic manifold M is required for us to obtain Novikov ring and for the definition of both Floer homology and quantum cohomology. A third construction, also due to Floer, associates homology groups to closed three-dimensional manifolds using the YangMills functional. duality, homology with local coefficients, and the cup product. For an introduction to this Introductory spectral sequence (in the category of closed smooth manifolds). endobj CiteSeerX - Document Details (Isaac Councill, Lee Giles, Pradeep Teregowda): The purpose of these lectures is to give an introduction to symplectic Floer homology and the proof of the Arnold conjecture. The differential counts certain holomorphic curves in the cylinder over the contact manifold, where the trivial examples are the branched coverings of (trivial) cylinders over closed Reeb orbits. In the important case when the symplectomorphism is the time-one map of a time-dependent Hamiltonian, it was however shown that these higher invariants do not contain any further information. Several kinds of Floer homology are special cases of Lagrangian Floer homology.

Hofer, in collaboration with Kris Wysocki and Eduard Zehnder, has developed new analytic foundations via their theory of polyfolds and a "general Fredholm theory". In [14] U. Frauenfelder and F.

As an application, we show that there are no displaceable, LetP be a symplectic manifold whose symplectic form, integrated over the spheres inP, is proportional to its first Chern class. There are more complicated operations on the Floer homology of a cotangent bundle that correspond to the string topology operations on the homology of the loop space of the underlying manifold. The three-manifold Floer homologies also come equipped with a distinguished element of the homology if the three-manifold is equipped with a contact structure. references below as we go along.

It was originally stated by M.F. Our main application is a proof that the Floer homology of the cotangent bundle, for the Hamiltonian function kinetic plus potential energy, is naturally isomorphic to the homology of the loop space. We study the heat flow in the loop space of a closed Riemannian manifold as an adiabatic limit of the Floer equations in the cotangent bundle. Floer homology is an infinite-dimensional analogue of Morse homology. (Which, unlike the other three, requires a contact homology for its definition. expository article by Fukaya and Seidel and in some papers by Ralph It is also connected to existing invariants and structures and many insights into 3-manifold topology have resulted. /Subtype /Type1 Alternately, we can consider the Instanton Floer homology of the 3-manifold Y.

While the cylindrical contact homology is well-defined and given by the symplectic Floer homologies of powers of the symplectomorphism, (rational) symplectic field theory and contact homology can be considered as generalized symplectic Floer homologies. {\displaystyle \Sigma } For further details, see Chapter 7 of dimension 6g6, where g is the genus of the surface /Type /XObject The "plus" and "minus" versions of Heegaard Floer homology, and the related OzsvthSzab four-manifold invariants, can be described combinatorially as well (Manolescu, Ozsvth & Thurston 2009).
