What happens when you try to do Fukaya-Seidel category with the function $f = xy^2$ on $\C^2$?
Well, you would say first, let's compute the regular fiber, which is $(\C^*)$, parameterized by $y$. Then, you ask, what is the monodromy. I don't think there is anything special, so let's say, the monodromy is trivial.
But, is it really trivial? hmmm, what if we set the fiberwise superpotential like $W = x+y$, we get some interesting fiberwise stop and wrapping. But I have no idea why we want these fiberwise wrapping. Anyway, on the fiber over $c$, we get $W = c/y^2 + y$.
Suppose I build a U brane on the base, and compute its endomorphism.
Let me try something else. $xy(y-1)$. How about this function? Is it better in terms of being more generic? partial $x$ gives $y(y-1)=0$, and partial y gives $x (2y-1)=0$, so we get either $(0,0)$ or $(0,1)$ as singular point, all with singular value $0$. OK, so we have two critical points over the same critical value, it seems they don't talk to each other.
Is that what happens with $f=xy^2$?
