Abstract:

Let $G$ be a compact Lie group, and let $k$ be a field of characteristic $p \geq 0$ such that $H^*(G)$ has no $p$-torsion if $p>0$. We show that a free Lagrangian orbit of a Hamiltonian $G$-action on a compact, monotone, symplectic manifold $X$ split-generates an idempotent summand of the monotone Fukaya category $\mathcal {F}(X; k)$ if and only if it represents a nonzero object of that summand (slightly more general results are also provided). Our result is based on an explicit understanding of the wrapped Fukaya category $\mathcal {W}(T^*G; k)$ through Koszul twisted complexes involving the zero-section and a cotangent fibre and on a functor $D^b \mathcal {W}(T^*G; k) \to D^b\mathcal {F}(X^{-} \times X; k)$ canonically associated to the Hamiltonian $G$-action on $X$. We explore several examples which can be studied in a uniform manner, including toric Fano varieties and certain Grassmannians.
