About the Lab

Professor Hansol Hong's research lab specializes in homological mirror symmetry, symplectic geometry, and categorified enumerative geometry, with a focus on constructing Landau–Ginzburg mirrors using Lagrangian Floer theory and deformation theory. The lab develops functorial constructions from the Fukaya category to matrix factorizations, enabling a homological mirror symmetry framework for complex and orbifold geometries, including elliptic curves, Riemann surfaces, and singular Calabi–Yau varieties. A central theme is the interplay between open Gromov–Witten invariants, mirror maps, and quantum-corrected mirrors, particularly through the study of immersed Lagrangians and their gluing. The lab also pioneers the incorporation of finite group actions into Floer theory, introducing novel equivariant and orbifolded Fukaya categories via spin profiles and group cohomology obstructions.

Localized mirror functor for Lagrangian immersions, and homological mirror symmetry for P^1_a,b,c
Cheol‐Hyun Cho, Hansol Hong, Siu-Cheong Lau
SJR Q1Journal of Differential Geometry

This paper gives a new way of constructing Landau–Ginzburg mirrors using deformation theory of Lagrangian immersions motivated by the works of Seidel, Strominger –Yau–Zaslow and Fukaya–Oh–Ohta–Ono. Moreover, we construct a canonical functor from the Fukaya category to the mirror category of matrix factorizations. This functor derives homological mirror symmetry under some explicit assumptions. As an application, the construction is applied to spheres with three orbifold points to produce their q

Noncommutative homological mirror functor
Cheol-Hyun Cho, Hansol Hong, Siu-Cheong Lau
arXiv (Cornell University)OA

We formulate a constructive theory of noncommutative Landau-Ginzburg models mirror to symplectic manifolds based on Lagrangian Floer theory. The construction comes with a natural functor from the Fukaya category to the category of matrix factorizations of the constructed Landau-Ginzburg model. As applications, it is applied to elliptic orbifolds, punctured Riemann surfaces and certain non-compact Calabi-Yau threefolds to construct their mirrors and functors. In particular it recovers and strengt

Immersed two-spheres and SYZ with Application to Grassmannians
Hansol Hong, Yoosik Kim, Siu-Cheong Lau
arXiv (Cornell University)OA

We develop a Floer theoretical gluing technique and apply it to deal with the most generic singular fiber in the SYZ program, namely the product of a torus with the immersed two-sphere with a single nodal self-intersection. As an application, we construct immersed Lagrangians in $\mathrm{Gr}(2,\mathbb{C}^n)$ and $\mathrm{OG}(1,\mathbb{C}^5)$ and derive their SYZ mirrors. It recovers the Lie theoretical mirrors constructed by Rietsch. It also gives an effective way to compute stable disks (with n

Lagrangian Floer potential of orbifold spheres
Cheol‐Hyun Cho, Hansol Hong, Sang-Hyun Kim, Siu-Cheong Lau
arXiv (Cornell University)OA

For each sphere with three orbifold points, we construct an algorithm to compute the open Gromov-Witten potential, which serves as the quantum-corrected Landau-Ginzburg mirror and is an infinite series in general. This gives the first class of general-type geometries whose full potentials can be computed. As a consequence we obtain an enumerative meaning of mirror maps for elliptic curve quotients. Furthermore, we prove that the open Gromov-Witten potential is convergent, even in the general-typ

Gluing Localized Mirror Functors
Cheol‐Hyun Cho, Hansol Hong, Siu-Cheong Lau
arXiv (Cornell University)OA

We develop a method of gluing the local mirrors and functors constructed from immersed Lagrangians in the same deformation class. As a result, we obtain a global mirror geometry and a canonical mirror functor. We apply the method to construct the mirrors of punctured Riemann surfaces and show that our functor derives homological mirror symmetry.

Finite group actions on Lagrangian Floer theory
Cheol‐Hyun Cho, Hansol Hong
SJR Q1Journal of Symplectic Geometry

We construct finite group actions on Lagrangian Floer theory when symplectic manifolds have finite group actions and Lagrangian submanifolds have induced group actions. We first define finite group actions on Novikov-Morse theory. We introduce the notion of a {\em spin profile} as an obstruction class of extending the group action on Lagrangian submanifold to the one on its spin structure, which is a group cohomology class in $H^2(G;\Z/2)$. For a class of Lagrangian submanifolds which have the s

Mirror of Atiyah flop in symplectic geometry and stability conditions
Yu-Wei Fan, Hansol Hong, Siu-Cheong Lau, Shing-Tung Yau
SJR Q2Advances in Theoretical and Mathematical Physics

We study the mirror operation of the Atiyah flop in symplectic geometry. We formulate the operation for a symplectic manifold with a Lagrangian fibration. Furthermore we construct geometric stability conditions on the derived Fukaya category of the deformed conifold and study the action of the mirror Atiyah flop on these stability conditions.

Localized mirror functor constructed from a Lagrangian torus
Cheol‐Hyun Cho, Hansol Hong, Siu-Cheong Lau
arXiv (Cornell University)OA

Fixing a weakly unobstructed Lagrangian torus in a symplectic manifold X, we define a holomorphic function W known as the Floer potential. We construct a canonical A-infinity functor from the Fukaya category of X to the category of matrix factorizations of W. It provides a unified way to construct matrix factorizations from Lagrangian Floer theory. The technique is applied to toric Fano manifolds to transform Lagrangian branes to matrix factorizations. Using the method, we also obtain an explici

OBJECTIVES: The aims of this study were to investigate the effects of intratympanic injections of isosorbide on vestibular function in animal models of endolymphatic hydrops and to find a new treatment option for the acute onset of vertigo in Ménière disease (MD). METHODS: Seventy male guinea pigs received intratympanic injection of isosorbide (IT-ISB).

Moduli of Lagrangian immersions with formal deformations
Hansol Hong, Siu-Cheong Lau
arXiv (Cornell University)OA

We introduce a joint project with Cheol-Hyun Cho on the construction of quantum-corrected moduli of Lagrangian immersions. The construction has important applications to mirror symmetry for pair-of-pants decompositions, SYZ and wall-crossing. The key ingredient is Floer-theoretical gluing between local moduli spaces of Lagrangians with different topologies.
