The equivariant cohomology of complexity one spaces

Symplectic Geometry 2019-10-10 v2

Abstract

Complexity one spaces are an important class of examples in symplectic geometry. Karshon and Tolman classify them in terms of combinatorial and topological data. In this paper, we compute the equivariant cohomology for any complexity one space Tn1T^{n-1} acting on M2nM^{2n}. The key step is to compute the equivariant cohomology for any Hamiltonian S1S^1 action on M4M^4.
