The Künneth Formula in Floer Homology for Manifolds with Restricted Contact Type Boundary
نویسنده
چکیده
We prove the Künneth formula in Floer (co)homology for manifolds with restricted contact type boundary. We use Viterbo’s definition of Floer homology, involving the symplectic completion by adding a positive cone over the boundary. The Künneth formula implies the vanishing of Floer (co)homology for subcritical Stein manifolds. Other applications include the Weinstein conjecture in certain product manifolds, obstructions to exact Lagrangian embeddings, existence of holomorphic curves with Lagrangian boundary condition, as well as symplectic capacities.

A Survey of Floer Homology for Manifolds with Contact Type Boundary or Symplectic Homology
The purpose of this paper is to give a survey of the various versions of Floer homology for manifolds with contact type boundary that have so far appeared in the literature. Under the name of “Symplectic homology” or “Floer homology for manifolds with boundary” they bear in fact common features and we shall try to underline the principles that unite them. Once this will be accomplished we shall...
متن کاملSeiberg – Witten – Floer stable homotopy type of three - manifolds with b 1 = 0
Using Furuta’s idea of finite dimensional approximation in Seiberg–Witten theory, we refine Seiberg–Witten Floer homology to obtain an invariant of homology 3–spheres which lives in the S1–equivariant graded suspension category. In particular, this gives a construction of Seiberg–Witten Floer homology that avoids the delicate transversality problems in the standard approach. We also define a re...
متن کاملA tour of bordered Floer theory
Heegaard Floer theory is a kind of topological quantum field theory, assigning graded groups to closed, connected, oriented 3-manifolds and group homomorphisms to smooth, oriented 4dimensional cobordisms. Bordered Heegaard Floer homology is an extension of Heegaard Floer homology to 3-manifolds with boundary, with extended-TQFT-type gluing properties. In this survey, we explain the formal struc...

متن کاملBordered Heegaard Floer Homology: Invariance and Pairing
We construct Heegaard Floer theory for 3-manifolds with connected boundary. The theory associates to an oriented two-manifold a di erential graded algebra. For a three-manifold with speci ed boundary, the invariant comes in two di erent versions, one of which (type D) is a module over the algebra and the other of which (type A) is an A∞ module. Both are well-de ned up to chain homotopy equivale...
