$A_n$ Milnor fibers are one of the most extensively studied symplectic manifolds. In this talk, we will first review their definitions and basic properties, then explore how they can be studied using Lefschetz fibrations. In particular, we will see how the Lagrangian Floer theory of $A_n$ Milnor fibers can be understood through the topology of the base of a Lefschetz fibration. If time permits, I will also discuss a joint work in progress with Hanwool Bae and Wonbo Jeong related to this topic.
