Flow categories I (Definitions and examples)
I will introduce the notion of a flow category and illustrate the definition by explaining how one can associate a flow category to a Morse function. Following Cohen-Jones-Segal, I will sketch how to obtain a CW complex from of a flow category. -

The Hamiltonian Floer homotopy type I
I will present the ingredients in the construction of the Floer homotopy type associated to a Hamiltonian diffeomorphism in the language of flow modules, as well as its invariance, following the forthcoming joint paper with A. Blumberg. My goal will be to point out what the technical issues are, and indicate how they are resolved. I will discuss only the symplectically aspherical case in the first lecture. -

Morse homology with DG coefficients
This is a joint work with M. Damian, V. Humilière, and A. Oancea. I will explain how the usual construction of Morse homology can be enriched to use a DG-local system of coefficients. The main source of examples of such coefficients is given by Hurewicz fibrations on the manifold under consideration, and the construction yields to a Morse theoretic interpretation of the homology (and more precisely of the Leray Serre spectral sequence) of such fibrations. In particular, the invariants retrieved by this construction catch informations that go far beyond the usual homology, and sit midway between homology and homotopy. -

Floer fundamental groups for Legendrian submanifolds
We announce two ongoing projects that are based on the Floer fundamental groups introduced by Jean-François Barraud. First, we associate such a group to a generating family describing a Legendrian submanifold, and predict its topological interpretation as a fundamental group. Second, we extend the Barraud construction to obtain representations of Floer fundamental groups, in particular using holomorphic curves for Legendrian submanifolds. These projects are respectively under the co-supervision of and in collaboration with Agnès Gadbled. -

Floer theory and cobordism classes of exact Lagrangians
We apply recent ideas in Floer homotopy theory to some questions in symplectic topology. We show that Floer homology can detect smooth structures of certain Lagrangians, as well as using this to find restrictions on symplectic mapping class groups. This is based on joint work-in-progress with Ivan Smith. -
