We provide a local approximation result of non-holomorphic discs with small d-bar by pseudoholomorphic ones. As an application, we provide a certain gluing construction.
In this work we construct Calabi quasi-morphisms on the universal cover of the group Ham(M) of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms for some non-monotone symplectic manifolds. This complements a result by Entov and Polterovich which applies in the…
For a compact $(2n+1)$-dimensional smooth manifold, let $\mu_M : B Diff_\partial (D^{2n+1}) \to B Diff (M)$ be the map that is defined by extending diffeomorphisms on an embedded disc by the identity. By a classical result of Farrell and…
In this paper, we study some basic geometric properties of pseudohermitian submanifolds of the Heisenberg groups. In particular, we obtain the uniqueness and existence theorems, and some rigidity theorems.
A stratification of a singular set, e.g. an algebraic or analytic variety, is, roughly, a partition of it into manifolds so that these manifolds fit together "regularly". A classical theorem of Whitney says that any complex analytic set has…
We show how self-referential discs in 4-manifolds lead to the construction of pairs of discs with a common geometrically dual sphere which are homotopic rel $\partial$, concordant and coincide near their boundaries, yet are not properly…
The main theorem of the paper provides an existence criterion of holomorphic discs for higher $A_\infty$ operations. The key step is to show that if a minimal disc in a K\"ahler manifold with boundary in a sequence of Lagrangian…
We modify the proof of the disc embedding theorem for $4$-manifolds, which appeared as Theorem 5.1A in the book "Topology of 4-manifolds" by Freedman and Quinn, in order to construct geometrically dual spheres. These were claimed in the…
We compute the Bott-Morse Floer cohomology of the Clifford torus in $\CP^n$ with all possible spin-structures. Each spin structure is known to determine an orientation of the moduli space of holomorphic discs, and we analyze the change of…
In this paper we describe the homology and cohomology of some natural bimodules over the little discs operad, whose components are configurations of non-$k$-overlapping discs. At the end we briefly explain how this algebraic structure…
We use the wrinkling theorem proven in Y. Eliashberg and N. Mishachev, "Wrinkling of smooth mappings and its applications - I", Invent. Math., 130(1997), 345-369, to fully describe the homotopy type of the space of S-immersions, i.e.…
In this article we discuss horizontal immersions of discs in certain corank-$2$ fat distributions on $6$-dimensional manifolds. The underlying real distribution of a holomorphic contact distribution on a complex $3$ manifold belongs to this…
We present a definable smooth version of the Thom transversality theorem. We show further that the set of non-transverse definable smooth maps is nowhere dense in the definable smooth topology. Finally, we prove a definable version of a…
We construct a symplectic structure on a disc that admits a compactly supported symplectomorphism which is not smoothly isotopic to the identity. The symplectic structure has an overtwisted concave end; the construction of the…
Biunivalent holomorphic functions form an interesting class in geometric function theory and are connected with special functions and solutions of complex differential equations. The paper reveals a deep connection between biunivalence and…
We prove that pseudo-holomorphic discs attached to a maximal totally real submanifold inherit their regularity from the regularity of the submanifold and of the almost complex structure. The proof is based on the computation of an explicit…
In this paper, we present a theory of Poisson deformation of Hamiltonian quasi-Poisson manifolds to Hamiltonian Poisson manifolds that include degenerate cases. More significantly, this theory extends to singular cases arising from…
In the context of symplectic dynamics, pseudo-rotations are Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms with finite and minimal possible number of periodic orbits. These maps are of interest in both dynamics and symplectic topology. We show that a closed,…
In this paper we will show how to construct holomorphic L^{p}-functions on unbranched coverings of strongly pseudoconvex manifolds. Also, we prove some extension and approximation theorems for such functions.
In this paper it is shown that every compact two-dimensional manifold $S$, with or without boundary, can be embedded in $\mathbb C^3$ as a smooth submanifold $\Sigma$ in such a way that the polynomially convex hull of $\Sigma$, though…
