Following the idea of [Far16], we develop the foundations of the geometric Langlands program on the Fargues--Fontaine curve. In particular, we define a category of $\ell$-adic sheaves on the stack $\mathrm{Bun}_G$ of $G$-bundles on the Fargues--Fontaine curve, prove a geometric Satake equivalence over the Fargues--Fontaine curve, and study the stack of $L$-parameters. As applications, we prove finiteness results for the cohomology of local Shimura varieties and general moduli spaces of local shtukas, and define $L$-parameters associated with irreducible smooth representations of $G(E)$, a map from the spectral Bernstein center to the Bernstein center, and the spectral action of the category of perfect complexes on the stack of $L$-parameters on the category of $\ell$-adic sheaves on $\mathrm{Bun}_G$.

We show that Rabinowitz Floer homology and cohomology carry the structure of a graded Frobenius algebra for both closed and open strings. We prove a Poincaré duality theorem between homology and cohomology that preserves this structure. This lifts to a duality theorem between graded open-closed TQFTs. We use in a systematic way the formalism of Tate vector spaces. Specializing to the case of cotangent bundles, we define Rabinowitz loop homology and cohomology and explain from a unified perspective pairs of dual results that have been observed over the years in the context of the search for closed geodesics. These concern critical levels, relations to the based loop space, manifolds all of whose geodesics are closed, Bott index iteration, and level-potency. Moreover, the graded Frobenius algebra structure gives meaning and proof to a relation conjectured by Sullivan between the loop product and coproduct.

Modular functors are traditionally defined as systems of projective representations of mapping class groups of surfaces that are compatible with gluing. They can formally be described as modular algebras over central extensions of the modular surface operad, with the values of the algebra lying in a suitable symmetric monoidal $(2,1)$-category $\mathcal{S}$ of linear categories. In this paper, we prove that modular functors in $\mathcal{S}$ are equivalent to self-dual balanced braided algebras $\mathcal{A}$ in $\mathcal{S}$ (a categorification of the notion of a commutative Frobenius algebra) for which a condition formulated in terms of factorization homology with coefficients in $\mathcal{A}$ is satisfied; we call such $\mathcal{A}$ connected. The equivalence in one direction is afforded by genus zero restriction. Our construction of the inverse equivalence is entirely topological and can be thought of as a far reaching generalization of the construction of modular functors from skein theory. In order to verify the connectedness condition in practice, we prove that it can be reduced to a single condition in genus one. Moreover, we show that cofactorizability of $\mathcal{A}$, a condition known to be satisfied for modular categories, is sufficient. Therefore, we recover in particular Lyubashenko's construction of a modular functor from a (not necessarily semisimple) modular category and show that it is determined by its genus zero part. Additionally, we exhibit modular functors that do not come from modular categories and outline applications to the theory of vertex operator algebras.

In this paper, we present a novel approach for computing the large genus asymptotics of intersection numbers. Our strategy is based on a resurgent analysis of the $n$-point functions of such intersection numbers, which are computed via determinantal formulae, and relies on the presence of a quantum curve. With this approach, we are able to extend the recent results of Aggarwal for Witten-Kontsevich intersection numbers with the computation of all subleading corrections, proving a conjecture of Guo-Yang, and to obtain new results on $r$-spin and Theta-class intersection numbers.

In this article, we study conjectures of Sandon on the minimal number of translated points in the special case of the unit tangent bundle of a Riemannian manifold. We restrict ourselves to contactomorphisms of $SM$ that lift diffeomorphisms of $M$ homotopic to identity. We prove that there exist sequences $(p_n,t_n)$ where $p_n$ is a translated point of time-shift $t_n$ with $t_n\to+\infty$ for a large class of manifolds. We also prove Morse estimates on the number of translated points in the case of Zoll Riemannian manifolds.
