Floer theory beyond Floer, March 23-27 March 2026

This workshop will showcase recent developments in a range of different areas of modern holomorphic curve theory, including Floer homotopy theory, symplectic dynamics and symplectic aspects of mirror symmetry. Optimistically this might help initiate new interactions between these different areas.
