Open strings, Lagrangian conductors and Floer functor


Abstract
             
I will associate to every symplectic manifold of dimension at  least four a small preadditive category of open strings and will explain how Lagrangian Floer theory gives rise to a functor with target the homotopy category of bounded chain complexes of open strings (and source a category of Lagrangian conductors).
