Meaning in context

In the closed symplectic setting where the symplectic form and first Chern class vanish on sphere classes, the homology over the field with two elements of the complex generated by nondegenerate contractible one-periodic Hamiltonian orbits, whose differential counts isolated finite-energy Floer cylinders modulo translation after regular choices.

Example

For the standard symplectic two-torus and a sufficiently small suitable Morse Hamiltonian, the ungraded Floer homology has total F2\mathbb F_2-dimension 1+2+1=41+2+1=4.

Usage and distinctions

This scoped construction concerns Hamiltonian periodic orbits. Lagrangian Floer homology uses different generators; manifolds with sphere bubbling require a broader construction and additional hypotheses.
