Isomorphism in the augmentation category

Given a Legendrian submanifold in any dimension, we prove that two augmentations are isomorphic within the positive augmentation category exactly when they differ by a combination of a dga homotopy and a dilation. This extends the corresponding statement for Legendrian knots and links, but instead of relying on the dga for consistent copies, we make use of quantum flow tree techniques. Consequently, we can strengthen and clarify a result of the first author as follows: for knot contact homology, the augmentation category is not in general equivalent to the microlocal rank 1 sheaf category.

Augmentation categories in higher dimensions

For an exact symplectic manifold $M$ and a Legendrian submanifold $\Lambda$ of the contactification $M\times \mathbb{R}$, we construct the augmentation category (over a field of characteristic 2), a unital $A_\infty$-category whose objects are augmentations of the Chekanov-Eliashberg differential graded algebra. This extends the construction of the augmentation category by Ng-Rutherford-Shende-Sivek-Zaslow to contact manifolds of dimension greater than 3.

Geometric Class Field Theory

In this expository article we present Rosenlicht's work on geometric class field theory, which classifies abelian coverings of smooth, projective, geometrically connected curves over perfect fields.
