Explicit constructions of quilts with seam condition coming from symplectic reduction

Abstract: Associated to a symplectic quotient $M/!/G$ is a Lagrangian correspondence $\Lambda_G$ from $M/!/G$ to $M$. In this note, we construct in two examples quilts with seam condition on such a correspondence, in the case of $S^1$ acting on $\mathbb{CP}^2$ with symplectic quotient $\mathbb{CP}^2/!/ S^1 = \mathbb{CP}^1$. First, we study the quilted strips that would, if not for figure eight bubbling, identify the Floer chain groups $CF(\gamma,S_{\text{Cl}}^1)$ and $CF(\mathbb{RP}^2,T_{\text{Cl}}^2)$, where $\gamma$ is the connected double-cover of $\mathbb{RP}^1$. Second, we answer a question due to Akveld-Cannas da Silva-Wehrheim by explicitly producing a figure eight bubble which obstructs an isomorphism between two Floer chain groups. The figure eight bubbles we construct in this paper are the first concrete examples of this phenomenon.
