Wedge product on deRham complex of a Riemannian manifold M can be pulled back to H^∗(M) via explicit homotopy, constructed using Green’s operator, to give higher product structures. We prove Fukaya’s conjecture which suggests that Witten deformation of these higher product structures have semiclassical limits as operators defined by counting gradient flow trees with respect to Morse functions, which generalizes the remarkable Witten deformation of deRham differential from a statement concerning homology to one concerning real homotopy type of M. Various applications of this conjecture to mirror symmetry are also suggested by Fukaya.

For almost all Riemannian metrics (in the C1 Baire sense) on a closed manifold M^{n+1}, 3 \leq n + 1 \leq 7, we prove that there is a sequence of closed, smooth, embedded, connected minimal hypersurfaces that is equidistributed in M. This gives a quantitative version of a result by Irie and the first two authors, that established density of minimal hypersurfaces for generic metrics. The main tool is the Weyl Law for the Volume Spectrum proven by Liokumovich and the first two authors .

We prove that generalized conifolds and orbifolded conifolds are mirror symmetric under the SYZ program with quantum corrections. Our work mathematically confirms the gaugetheoretic assertion of Aganagic–Karch–Lust–Miemiec, and also provides a supportive evidence to Morrison’s conjecture that geometric transitions are reversed under mirror symmetry.

Let U(n) be the unitary group, and u(n)¤ the dual of its Lie algebra, equipped with the Kirillov Poisson structure. In their 1983 paper, Guillemin-Sternberg introduced a densely defined Hamiltonian action of a torus of dimension (n−1)n/2 on u(n)¤, with moment map given by the Gelfand-Zeitlin coordinates. A few years later, Flaschka-Ratiu described a similar, ‘multiplicative’ GelfandZeitlin system for the Poisson Lie group U(n)¤. By the Ginzburg-Weinstein theorem, U(n)¤ is isomorphic to u(n)¤ as a Poisson manifold. Flaschka-Ratiu conjectured that one can choose the Ginzburg-Weinstein diffeomorphism in such a way that it intertwines the linear and nonlinear Gelfand-Zeitlin systems. Our main result gives a proof of this conjecture, and produces a canonical Ginzburg-Weinstein diffeomorphism.
