Hyperkahler and symplectic complex geometry: reference?

I would need some references regarding symplectic and hyperkahler (complex) geometry. My background is mostly from algebraic geometry and I know a little bit the basics on Kahler manifolds. I would be ...

Symplectic resolutions amongst cotangent bundles

It is known that a generalized flag variety $X=T^*(G/P)$ is a (symplectic) resolution of singularities of its affinization $X^\text{aff}\mathrel{:=}\operatorname{Spec}(H^0(X,\mathcal{O}_X))$. In type ...

Coulomb branch varieties and symplectic singularities

I was recently looking at the survey article of Fu on symplectic resolutions which has a number of open questions and conjectures at the end. (I think one of these was existence of a classification ...

Hochschild cohomology of (generalizations) of Khovanov's arc algebra

Backgroud: In his seminal paper A functor-valued invariant of tangles, Khovanov (among many other things) introduced the arc algebra $H^{n}$ and several functors between $H^{n}$ and $H^{m}$ related to ...

Does there exists a Fukaya category with no objects

... and really without even the possibility of having objects, so it's not a matter of just finding the "correct" flavour of Fukaya category to use. Question: Does there exist interesting symplectic ...

Open conjectures on the Fukaya category coming from physics

This is a slightly vague question (for which I apologize in advance): can somebody give examples to open conjectures on the behavior of the $Fuk(M,\omega)$ that come from string theory and can be ...

Automorphism that the Fukaya category is "blind" to

Given a symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$, there is a natural map $$ Symp(M,\omega) \to Auteq(D^\pi Fuk(M,\omega))$$ which sends a symplectic automorphism to the $A_\infty$-functor it induces on the ...

What is the significance that the Springer resolution is a moment map?

Let $\mathcal{B}$ be the flag variety and $\mathcal{N} \subset \mathfrak{g}$ is the nilpotent cone. We know that the Springer resolution $$ \mu: T^*\mathcal{B}\rightarrow \mathcal{N} $$ is the moment ...
