Abstract:

Bordered Floer homology, due to Lipshitz, Ozsv谩th, and Thurston [LOT], is a generalization of Heegaard Floer homology to 3-manifolds with parametrized boundary. The simplest incarnation of this invariant can be regarded as a differential module CFD(Y) and a pairing theorem of [LOT] tells us that the complex of module homomorphisms between two such modules is homotopy equivalent to the Heegaard Floer complex of the 3-manifold obtained by gluing. We will discuss a topological interpretation of composition of module homomorphisms in this context, and applications thereof, including forthcoming work on deformations of arc algebras and a spectral sequence for links in S^1xS^2.
