Max Dehn, Axel Thue, and the Undecidable
This is a short essay on the roles of Max Dehn and Axel Thue in the
formulation of the word problem for (semi)groups, and the story of the proofs
showing that the word problem is undecidable.Comment: Definition of undecidability and unsolvability improve
New directions in Nielsen-Reidemeister theory
The purpose of this expository paper is to present new directions in the
classical Nielsen-Reidemeister fixed point theory. We describe twisted
Burnside-Frobenius theorem, groups with \emph{property} and a
connection between Nielsen fixed point theory and symplectic Floer homology.Comment: 50 pages, surve
Seidel's long exact sequence on Calabi-Yau manifolds
In this paper, we generalize construction of Seidel's long exact sequence of
Lagrangian Floer cohomology to that of compact Lagrangian submanifolds with
vanishing Malsov class on general Calabi-Yau manifolds. We use the framework of
anchored Lagrangian submanifolds developed in \cite{fooo:anchor} and some
compactness theorem of \emph{smooth} -holomorphic sections of Lefschetz
Hamiltonian fibration for a generic choice of . The proof of the latter
compactness theorem involves a study of proper pseudoholomorphic curves in the
setting of noncompact symplectic manifolds with cylindrical ends.Comment: 59 pages, comments welcom
