Abstract

Motivated by a problem of Hirzebruch, we study 88-dimensional, closed, symplectic manifolds having a Hamiltonian torus action with isolated fixed points and second Betti number equal to 11. Such manifolds are automatically positive monotone. Our main result concerns those endowed with a Hamiltonian T2T^2-action and fourth Betti number equal to 22. We classify their isotropy data, (equivariant) cohomology rings and (equivariant) Chern classes, and prove that they agree with those of certain explicit Fano 44-folds with torus actions. Moreover, under more general assumptions, we prove several finiteness results concerning Betti and Chern numbers of 88-dimensional, positive monotone symplectic manifolds with a Hamiltonian torus action.
