Let $G$ be a compact connected Lie group and let $K$ be a closed subgroup of $G$. In this paper we study whether the functional $g\mapsto \lambda_1(G/K,g)\operatorname{diam}(G/K,g)^2$ is bounded among $G$-invariant metrics $g$ on $G/K$.…

The moment map $\mu$ is a central concept in the study of Hamiltonian actions of compact Lie groups $K$ on symplectic manifolds. In this short note, we propose a theory of moment maps coupled with an $\mathrm{Ad}_K$-invariant convex…
