Perturbation of vector fields in Morse Homology

Recently I have been reading on Morse Homology. Suppose we have a compact manifold $M$ and a smooth function $f:M \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ and a Morse vector field $X$ such that we can do Morse ...

Relating the Morse index with the Maslov index

In the following paper https://arxiv.org/pdf/math/0408280.pdf there is created an isomorphism between the Floer Homology of an hamiltonian functional $H$ in the cotangent bundle and the the Morse ...

$A_{\infty}$ multiplications on Morse cochain complex

Can the higher order $A_{\infty}$ multiplications defined by Fukaya be made trivial(by perturbing gradient trees) when Morse cochain complex is isomorphic to Morse cohomology, in which case the cup ...

Morse theory for pairs of submanifolds of complementary dimension

If you have a closed monotone symplectic manifold $M$, then to any pair of closed monotone Lagrangian submanifolds $L_1$, $L_2$ you can associate (modulo some bubbling assumptions) a $\mathbb{Z}_N$-...

Parametric Sard-Smale theorem - when is the generic set open?

I am learning Morse/Floer Theory and in my work on my master's thesis I want to apply the parametric Sard-Smale theorem. I.e. I consider a Banach bundle $\mathcal{L} \to \mathcal{M}\times \mathcal{G}$ ...
