CMSA Mathematical Physics Seminar: Floer K-theory and exotic Liouville manifolds

In this talk, I will discuss how to define the (wrapped) Fukaya category of an exact symplectic manifold with coefficients in extraordinary cohomology theories, following the ideas of Cohen–Jones–Segal. I will then explain how to construct an exotic symplectic ball, which has vanishing ordinary symplectic homology, but can be distinguished from the standard ball by using Floer homology with coefficients in complex K-theory.
