Derived Stacks in Symplectic Geometry

Abstract: Derived symplectic geometry studies symplectic structures on derived stacks. Derived stacks are the main players in derived geometry, the purpose of which is to deal with singular spaces, while symplectic structures are an essential ingredient of the geometric formalism of classical mechanics and classical field theory. In addition to providing an overview of a relatively young field of research, we provide a case study on Casson's invariant.

“…Our major geometric motivation actually lies in the construction of lagrangian (rather than just symplectic) structures, and their connections with critical loci or Calabi-Yau geometry. To be more specific, inspired by classical symplectic geometry [32], we are interested in deformations of conormal stacks that appear as relative critical loci (see [7,1]). In certain cases, these relative critical loci can be obtained as moduli of representations of relative versions of Ginzburg's dg-algebras.…”

“…More precisely, we view our construction as a derived intersection of two Lagrangians in a 1-shifted symplectic stack and obtain a -shifted symplectic structure from [PTVV13, Theorem 2.9]. There are similar statements in the literature for Marsden–Weinstein–Meyer reduction [Cal20, § 2.1.2] and quasi-Hamiltonian reduction [Saf16]. We refer the reader to [PTVV13, Get14, Cal20, PS20] for the relevant background on shifted symplectic geometry.…”

“…Given an algebraic symplectic groupoid , recall that the quotient stack inherits a -shifted symplectic structure (see e.g. [Cal20, § 1.2.3], [Get14], and [Saf21, Proposition 3.31]). Recall also that a Hamiltonian action of on a smooth symplectic variety with moment map gives rise to a Lagrangian structure on the map (see [Cal20, Example 1.31]).…”

“…One take-away is that being closed is structure/data as opposed to a property of a form. [Cal,PTVV13] Let X be a (derived) stack with cotangent complex L X . We will assume that L X is dualizable and the dual will be the tangent complex T X .…”
