We classify the periodic Hamiltonian flows on compact four dimensional symplectic manifolds up to isomorphism of Hamiltonian S^1 spaces. Additionally, we show that all these spaces are Kaehler, that every such space is obtained from a…

In this paper, we prove that any $C^{1}$-regular Hamiltonian stationary Lagrangian submanifold in a symplectic manifold is smooth. More broadly, we develop a regularity theory for a class of fourth order nonlinear elliptic equations with…

We study Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of closed symplectic manifolds with non-contractible periodic orbits. In a variety of settings, we show that the presence of one non-contractible periodic orbit of a Hamiltonian diffeomorphism of a…

We prove a new variant of the energy-capacity inequality for closed rational symplectic manifolds (as well as certain open manifolds such as cotangent bundle of closed manifolds...) and we derive some consequences to C^0-symplectic…

We study the dynamics of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms on convex symplectic manifolds. To this end we first establish the Piunikhin-Salamon-Schwarz isomorphism between the Floer homology and the Morse homology of such a manifold, and then use…

In symplectic topology one uses elliptic methods to prove rigidity results about symplectic manifolds and solutions of Hamiltonian equations on them, where the most basic example is given by geodesics on Riemannian manifolds. Harmonic maps…

Hamiltonian flows on compact surfaces are characterized, and the topological invariants of such flows with finitely many singular points are constructed from the viewpoints of integrable systems, fluid mechanics, and dynamical systems.…

This is the second of two companion papers. We describe a generalization of the point vortex system on surfaces to a Hamiltonian dynamical system consisting of two or three points on complex projective space CP^2 interacting via a…

We present the Hamiltonian formalism for the Euler equation of symplectic fluids, introduce symplectic vorticity, and study related invariants. In particular, this allows one to extend D.Ebin's long-time existence result for geodesics on…

We prove that for a broad class of exact symplectic manifolds including ${\mathbb R}^{2m}$ the Hamiltonian flow on a regular compact energy level of an autonomous Hamiltonian cannot be uniquely ergodic. This is a consequence of the…

We develop a Hamiltonian theory for 2D soliton equations. In particular, we identify the spaces of doubly periodic operators on which a full hierarchy of commuting flows can be introduced, and show that these flows are Hamiltonian with…

We assign to each nondegenerate Hamiltonian on a closed symplectic manifold a Floer-theoretic quantity called its "boundary depth," and establish basic results about how the boundary depths of different Hamiltonians are related. As…

We study the orbit behavior of a four dimensional smooth symplectic diffeomorphism $f$ near a homoclinic orbit $\Gamma$ to an 1-elliptic fixed point under some natural genericity assumptions. 1-elliptic fixed point has two real eigenvalues…

In this paper, we prove that if a continuous Hamiltonian flow fixes the points in an open subset $U$ of a symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$, then its associated Hamiltonian is constant at each moment on $U$. As a corollary, we prove that the…
