Upper bound for the Gromov width of coadjoint orbits of type A

Symplectic Geometry 2013-01-18 v2

Abstract

We find an upper bound for the Gromov width of coadjoint orbits of U(n) with respect to the Kirillov-Kostant-Souriau symplectic form by computing certain Gromov-Witten invariants. The approach presented here is closely related to the one used by Gromov in his celebrated non-squeezing theorem.
