Abstract Polyfold Theory

  • A General Fredholm Theory I: A Splicing-Based Differential Geometry (H.Hofer, K.Wysocki, E.Zehnder, 2006) [30]
  • A General Fredholm Theory III: Fredholm Functors and Polyfolds (H.Hofer, K.Wysocki, E.Zehnder, 2008) [32]
  • Integration Theory for Zero Sets of Polyfold Fredholm Sections (H.Hofer, K.Wysocki, E.Zehnder, 2007) [33]
  • Sc-Smoothness, Retractions and New Models for Smooth Spaces (H.Hofer, K.Wysocki, E.Zehnder, 2010) [34]
  • Coherent M-polyfold Theory (B.Filippenko, K.Wehrheim) - provides a construction scheme for perturbations of Fredholm sections (with trivial isotropy) whose boundary stratifications are Cartesian products of other Fredholm sections, while preserving transversality and compactness; preliminary draft available
  • Sliceable Polyfolds and Constrained Moduli Problem (B.Filippenko, K.Wehrheim) - establishes an implicit function theorem for non-Fredholm submersions cutting out 'slices' of finite codimension, proves that restrictions of polyfold Fredholm sections to 'slices' remain Fredholm, and in particular proves that suitably transverse fiber products of Polyfold Fredholm sections are again Polyfold Fredholm; preliminary draft available
  • Quotients in Polyfold Theory (Z.Zhou, K.Wehrheim) - studies Polyfold Fredholm sections that are equivariant under the action of a compact Lie group, constructs equivariant transverse perturbations for actions with finite isotropy and S^{1} actions with vanishing obstructions, and applies this to prove Arnold conjecture; preliminary draft available
  • Equivariant Fundamental Class and Localization Theorem (Z.Zhou, K.Wehrheim) - constructs an equivariant fundamental class for any equivariant polyfold Fredholm section (without boundary), and proves the localization theorem for 'regular fixed point locus'; preliminary draft available
  • Polyflow Homotopy Theory (Z.Zhou) - develops homotopical invariants from systems of Polyfold Fredholm sections whose zero sets- if cut out transversely - form a Cohen-Jones-Segal 'flow category'; work in progress

Applications of Polyfold Theory

  • Applications of Polyfold Theory I: The Polyfolds of Gromov-Witten Theory (H.Hofer, K.Wysocki, E.Zehnder, 2011) [35]
  • Fredholm notions in scale calculus and Hamiltonian Floer theory (K.Wehrheim, 2012&2016) [36]
  • A-infty structures from Morse trees with pseudoholomorphic disks (Jiayong Li, K.Wehrheim, 2014 preliminary draft) [37]
  • A proof of the Arnold Conjuecture by Polyfold Techniques (P.Albers, B.Filippenko, J.Fish, K.Wehrheim) - constructs the PSS isomorphism in general compact symplectic manifolds - preliminary draft and [slides] available
  • Gromov-Witten axioms for polyfold construction (W.Schmaltz, K.Wehrheim) - proves the Kontsevich-Manin axioms for the polyfold construction of Gromov-Witten invariants; writing in progress
