    Webs of Lagrangian Tori in Projective Symplectic Manifolds

    Full text link
    For a Lagrangian torus A in a simply-connected projective symplectic manifold M, we prove that M has a hypersurface disjoint from a deformation of A. This implies that a Lagrangian torus in a compact hyperk\"ahler manifold is a fiber of an almost holomorphic Lagrangian fibration, giving an affirmative answer to a question of Beauville's. Our proof employs two different tools: the theory of action-angle variables for algebraically completely integrable Hamiltonian systems and Wielandt's theory of subnormal subgroups.Comment: 18 pages, minor latex problem fixe

    Homological mirror symmetry for the quintic 3-fold

    Full text link
    We prove homological mirror symmetry for the quintic Calabi-Yau 3-fold. The proof follows that for the quartic surface by Seidel (arXiv:math/0310414) closely, and uses a result of Sheridan (arXiv:1012.3238). In contrast to Sheridan's approach (arXiv:1111.0632), our proof gives the compatibility of homological mirror symmetry for the projective space and its Calabi-Yau hypersurface.Comment: 29 pages, 6 figures. v2: revised following the suggestions of the referee

    Seiberg-Witten and Gromov invariants for self-dual harmonic 2-forms

    Full text link
    This is the sequel to the author's previous paper which gives an extension of Taubes' "SW=Gr" theorem to non-symplectic 4-manifolds. The main result of this paper asserts the following. Whenever the Seiberg-Witten invariants are defined over a closed minimal 4-manifold X, they are equivalent modulo 2 to "near-symplectic" Gromov invariants in the presence of certain self-dual harmonic 2-forms on X. A version for non-minimal 4-manifolds is also proved. A corollary to circle-valued Morse theory on 3-manifolds is also announced, recovering a result of Hutchings-Lee-Turaev about the 3-dimensional Seiberg-Witten invariants.Comment: 41 pages.

    Relative Ruan and Gromov-Taubes Invariants of Symplectic 4-Manifolds

    Full text link
    We define relative Ruan invariants that count embedded connected symplectic submanifolds which contact a fixed stable symplectic hypersurface V in a symplectic 4-manifold (X,w) at prescribed points with prescribed contact orders (in addition to insertions on X\V) for stable V. We obtain invariants of the deformation class of (X,V,w). Two large issues must be tackled to define such invariants: (1) Curves lying in the hypersurface V and (2) genericity results for almost complex structures constrained to make V pseudo-holomorphic (or almost complex). Moreover, these invariants are refined to take into account rim tori decompositions. In the latter part of the paper, we extend the definition to disconnected submanifolds and construct relative Gromov-Taubes invariants
