In this paper we construct possible candidates for the minus versions of monopole and instanton knot Floer homologies. For a null-homologous knot $Ksubset Y$ and a base point $pin K$, we can associate the minus versions, $underline{rm KHM}^-(Y,K,p)$ and $underline{rm KHI}^-(Y,K,p)$, to the triple $(Y,K,p)$. We prove that a Seifert surface of $K$ induces a $mathbb{Z}$-grading, and there is an $U$-map on the minus versions, which is of degree $-1$. We also prove other basic properties of them. If $Ksubset Y$ is not null-homologous but represents a torsion class, then we can also construct the corresponding minus versions for $(Y,K,p)$. We also proved a surgery-type formula relating the minus versions of a knot $K$ with those of the dual knot, when performing a Dehn surgery of large enough slope along $K$. The techniques developed in this paper can also be applied to compute the sutured monopole and instanton Floer homologies of any sutured solid tori.

Let M be a noncompact oriented connected manifold and let B be a compact manifold. We give conditions on two smooth families of volume forms { ω p } p ∈ B , { τ p } p ∈ B which guarantee the existence of a smooth family of diffeomorphisms { ϕ p } p ∈ B such that ϕ ∗ p ω p = τ p for all p ∈ B . If B is a point, our result recovers a theorem of Greene and Shiohama from 1979, which itself extended a theorem of Moser for compact manifolds.

We show that all positive contact surgeries on every Legendrian figure-eight knot in ( S 3 , ξ std ) result in an overtwisted contact structure. The proof uses convex surface theory and invariants from Heegaard Floer homology.

We prove that a compact toric locally conformally K¨ahler manifold which is not K¨ahler admits a toric Vaisman structure. This is the final step leading to the classification of compact toric locally conformally K¨ahler manifolds. We also show, by constructing an example, that unlike in the symplectic case, toric locally conformally symplectic manifolds are not necessarily toric locally conformally K¨ahler.

We show that the union of some circles in a closed Riemannian surface with positive genus is superheavy in the sense of Entov-Polterovich. By a result of Entov and Polterovich, this implies that the product of this union and the Clifford torus of C P n with the Fubini-Study symplectic form cannot be displaced by any symplec-tomorphisms.

We study obstructions to the existence of closed Fedosov star products on a given Kähler manifold (M,ω, J). In our previous paper [14], we proved that the Levi-Civita connection of a Kähler manifold will produce a closed Fedosov star product (closed in the sense of Connes–Flato–Sternheimer [4]) only if it is a zero of a moment map μ on the space of symplectic connections. By analogy with the Futaki invariant obstructing the existence of constant scalar curvature Kähler metric, we build an obstruction for the existence of zero of μ and hence for the existence of closed Fedosov star product on a Kähler manifold.

We prove that, for a $C^infty$-generic contact form $lambda$ adapted to a given contact distribution on a closed three-manifold, there exists a sequence of periodic Reeb orbits which is equidistributed with respect to $dlambda$. This is a quantitative refinement of the $C^infty$-generic density theorem for three-dimensional Reeb flows, which was previously proved by the author. The proof is based on the volume theorem in embedded contact homology (ECH) by Cristofaro-Gardiner, Hutchings, Ramos, and inspired by the argument of Marques-Neves-Song, who proved a similar equidistribution result for minimal hypersurfaces. We also discuss a question about generic behavior of periodic Reeb orbits "representing" ECH homology classes, and give a partial affirmative answer to a toy model version of this question which concerns boundaries of star-shaped toric domains.

We show that the bordered-sutured Floer invariant of the complement of a tangle in an arbitrary 3-manifold $Y$, with minimal conditions on the bordered-sutured structure, satisfies an unoriented skein exact triangle. This generalizes a theorem by Manolescu for links in $S^3$. We give a theoretical proof of this result by adapting holomorphic polygon counts to the bordered-sutured setting, and also give a combinatorial description of all maps involved and explicitly compute them. We then show that, for $Y = S^3$, our exact triangle coincides with Manolescu's. Finally, we provide a graded version of our result, explaining in detail the grading reduction process involved.
