We study the spaces of locally finite stability conditions on the derived categories of coherent sheaves on the minimal resolutions of An-singularities supported at the exceptional sets. Our main theorem is that they are connected and simply-connected. The proof is based on the study of spherical objects in [30] and the homological mirror symmetry for An-singularities.

We prove that given a three manifold with an arbitrary metric $(M^3, g)$ of positive Ricci curvature, there exists a sweepout of $M$ by surfaces of genus $\leq 3$ and areas bounded by $C vol(M^3, g)^{2/3}$. We use this result to construct a sweepout of $M$ by 1-cycles of length at most $C vol(M^3, g)^{1/3}$ and prove a systolic inequality for all $M \neq S^3$. The sweepout of surfaces is generated from a min-max minimal surface. If further assuming a positive scalar curvature lower bound, we can get a diameter upper bound for the min-max surface.

We prove that the algebra of singular cochains on a smooth manifold, equipped with the cup product, is equivalent to the A1 structure on the Lagrangian Floer cochain group associated to the zero section in the cotangent bundle. More generally, given embeddings with isomorphic normal bundles of a closed manifold B into manifolds Q1 and Q2, we construct a differential graded category from the singular cochains of these spaces, and prove that it is equivalent to the A1 category obtained by considering exact Lagrangian embeddings of Q1 and Q2 which intersect cleanly along B.
