Has anything precise been written about the Fukaya category and Lagrangian skeletons?

I noticed this question has been bumped up to the front page, and the most recent answer is about 8 years old: the subject has moved on since then, and more has been written. Here is my understanding ...

Has anything precise been written about the Fukaya category and Lagrangian skeletons?

A comment re. Jonny's nice answer: there was indeed a time when that was the envisioned strategy of proof. However our present approach does not require the arborealization. Because: now we know ...

Meaning of A-infinity relations

For your first question. Suppose $(A,d,m,m_3,m_4\dots)$ is an $A_\infty$-algebra. The operation $m_3$ gives a homotopy between $m(-,m(-,-))$ and $m(m(-,-),-)$, which I will abusively denote as $a(bc)$ ...

Geometric Langlands: From D-mod to Fukaya

To answer [a paraphrase of] your second question first: yes the Kapustin-Witten perspective on geometric Langlands has I think been taken very seriously by a segment of the math community. I find it ...

Geometric Langlands: From D-mod to Fukaya

One answer to your initial question is that the $D$-modules are supposed to actually do something - they're supposed to analogize to automorphic forms under the sheaf-functions dictionary. Therefore ...

Meaning of A-infinity relations

I'll be informal but try to give a topologist's intuitive interpretation, which gives the original source of the idea. Historically, $A_{\infty}$ structures start with Stasheff's work determining ...

Wrapped Fukaya categories of Stein manifolds

By now we understand quite well generators of such categories. The co-core disks for any relative skeleton of the sector associated to the superpotential will do. (The argument for this is geometric,...

Geometric Langlands: From D-mod to Fukaya

More a comment than an answer: I think the lagrangian-to-sheaf dictionary is more “immediately applicable” than is commonly supposed. In particular, it’s possible to immediately apply the dictionary ...

Generating Fukaya category vs split-generating Fukaya category

Yes, generation is stronger than split-generation, because you don't need to split off summands after forming iterated mapping cones with degree shifts. The simplest example I have in mind is when $M$ ...

What is Known about the $K$-Theory of Fukaya Categories?

For $X$ Weinstein, it's a result of Oleg Lazarev that the map $H_n(X) \to SH(X)$ factors as $$H_n(X) \twoheadrightarrow K_0(Fuk(X)) \to HH_\bullet(Fuk(X)) = SH_\bullet(X)$$ Here the map to $K_0(X)$ ...

Mirror symmetry for singular Lagrangian torus fibrations

Yes, there is a concrete program on how to handle singular fibers in the SYZ fibration and several steps of this program are already completed. You can watch the videos of Abouzaid lectures on the ...

Meaning of A-infinity relations

One interpretation I prefer is obtained by defining $A_{\infty}$ structures on graded space $L$ as a degree $-1$ square zero derivation $d$ on (co)free coalgebra on $L[-1]$ aka its bar construction. ...

How to understand geometrically, the count of pseudoholomorphic discs by (multi)section perturbation of the kuranish structure on the moduli space?

You are right that the solutions of the perturbed equation do not satisfy the $\bar\partial_J$ equation for any $J$ anymore. Please note that this is a feature: if they would still be properly $J$-...

Are all exact Lagrangian spheres, vanishing cycles?

No, this is not necessarily true. In fact, this is never the case if $E = B^4$, and $F$ has connected boundary and genus $g \ge 2$. Since $H_1(E) = 0$, the vanishing cycles span $H_1(F)$. An Euler ...

Bridgeland stability to Fukaya stability on elliptic curve; geometric proof of no slope decreasing homs

Until someone better comes along here is some info about mirror symmetry on elliptic curve. The rational line of slope $m/n$ for coprime $m,n$ is the appropriate stable vector bundle. Then if you have ...
