Fukaya category

In symplectic topology, a Fukaya category of a symplectic manifold is a category whose objects are Lagrangian submanifolds of , and morphisms are Floer chain groups: . Its finer structure can be described in the language of quasi categories as an A∞-category. They are named after Kenji Fukaya who introduced the language first in the context of Morse homology, and exist in a number of variants. As Fukaya categories are A∞-categories, they have associated derived categories, which are the subject of the celebrated homological mirror symmetry conjecture of Maxim Kontsevich. This conjecture has been computationally verified for a number of comparatively simple examples. (Wikipedia).

Fukaya categories and variation of symplectic form - Chris Woodward

I hope to talk more about how to find generators for Fukaya categories using symplectic version of the minimal model program in examples such as symplectic quotients of products of spheres and moduli spaces of parabolic bundles. More videos on http://video.ias.edu

James Pascaleff: Poisson geometry and monoidal Fukaya categories

The lecture was held within the framework of the Hausdorff Trimester Program: Symplectic Geometry and Representation Theory. Abstract: Poisson manifolds are a generalization of symplectic manifolds, so one can ask in what sense Floer theory and the Fukaya category generalize to them. Whil
