Abstract

We generalize the Weinstein-Moser theorem on the existence of nonlinear normal modes near an equilibrium in a Hamiltonian system to a theorem on the existence of relative perodic orbits near a relative equilibrium in a Hamiltonian system with continuous symmetries. In particular we prove that under appropriate hypotheses there exist relative periodic orbits near relative equilibria even when these relative equilibria are singular points of the corresponding moment map, i.e. when the reduced spaces are singular.

Algebra of the Infrared with Elliptic Curve-Valued Potential

We study an extension of the algebra of the infrared to curve--valued potentials, focusing on the elliptic curve case. Given a finite configuration of points on an elliptic curve, we construct associated \(L_\infty\)-algebra. Adding an extra point produces a directed \(A_\infty\)-algebra and an \(L_\infty\)-morphism to their directed Hochschild deformation complexes. Maurer--Cartan elements of the \(L_\infty\)-algebra determine \(A_\infty\)-deformations of the directed algebra. We formulate a conjectural comparison between Maurer--Cartan deformations of the directed algebra and the directed Fukaya--Seidel category associated to compatible finite collections of thimbles.

Moment Lagrangians, unobstructedness and symplectic groupoids

Moment Lagrangian $L_μ$ is a Lagrangian in $T^*G^- \times Y^- \times Y$ associated to a Hamiltonian $G$-space $Y$ with a moment map $μ$. In this paper, we prove that $L_μ$ is tautologically unobstructed under mild assumptions on $Y$. As a key ingredient in the proof, we constructed a new symplectic groupoid structure on $T^*G^- \times Y^- \times Y$ over $G\times Y$ for which $L_μ$ is simultaneously the unit and the fixed locus of the inversion, which might be of independent interest.

Functors from Lagrangian correspondences for wrapped sheaf categories

We consider the category of sheaves on a manifold with microsupport in a singular conic Lagrangian, and more generally microsheaves on the Lagrangian skeleton of a Weinstein manifold with stop, which are equivalent to ind-completions of partially wrapped Fukaya categories. Compact objects in these categories are obtained as wrappings of constructible sheaves with perfect stalks; they correspond to objects built from exact Lagrangians in finitely many steps. We give a microlocal criterion on constructible (micro)sheaves with perfect (micro)stalks which guarantees that the corresponding wrapped sheaves induce integral kernels that preserve compact objects of these categories. This generalizes a result of Gao on Lagrangian correspondences between fully wrapped Fukaya categories.
