Orbifold Floer spectral invariants, symmetric product links and Weyl laws

Cheuk Yu Mak, Sobhan Seyfaddini, Ivan Smith

We explain a strategy, based on spectral invariants on symmetric product orbifolds, for proving the smooth closing lemma for Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of a symplectic manifold wh…

-rigidity of the Hamiltonian diffeomorphism group of symplectic rational surfaces

Marcelo Atallah, Cheuk Yu Mak, Weiwei Wu

We investigate the -topology of the group of symplectic diffeomorphisms of positive symplectic rational surfaces. For all but a few exceptions, we prove that the group of Hami…

Orbifold Hamiltonian Floer theory for global quotients

Cheuk Yu Mak, Sobhan Seyfaddini, Ivan Smith

We construct bulk-deformed orbifold Hamiltonian Floer theory for a global quotient orbifold, that is the quotient of a smooth closed symplectic manifold by a finite group acting fa…

Symplectic annular Khovanov homology and fixed point localizations

Kristen Hendricks, Cheuk Yu Mak, Sriram Raghunath

We introduce a new version of symplectic annular Khovanov homology and establish spectral sequences from (i) the symplectic annular Khovanov homology of a knot to the link Floer ho…

A characterization of heaviness in terms of relative symplectic cohomology

Cheuk Yu Mak, Yuhan Sun, Umut Varolgunes

For a compact subset of a closed symplectic manifold , we prove that is heavy if and only if its relative symplectic cohomology over the Novikov field is non-zero.…

Some cute applications of Lagrangian cobordisms towards examples in quantitative symplectic geometry

Jeff Hicks, Cheuk Yu Mak

We provide some constructions using Lagrangian cobordisms that improve known examples for some symplectic squeezing problems. Additionally, we prove a flexibility result that Lagra…
