Abstract:
I will talk on what I have learned from Umut Varolgunes, and on our work in preparation. In 2007, Entov and Polterovich introduced the notion of heavy and superheavy subsets of symplectic manifolds; such subsets have remarkable symplectic rigidity properties. One can define a variant version of (super)heaviness using relative symplectic homology studied by Varolgunes. I will explain this story, and prove that Lagrangian skeleta of symplectic divisor complements of Calabi-Yau's are superheavy in this sense.
