We investigate the notion of symplectic divisorial compactification for symplectic 4-manifolds with either convex or concave type boundary. This is motivated by the notion of compactifying divisors for open algebraic surfaces. We give a…

This paper is a fusion of a survey and a research article. We focus on certain rigidity phenomena in function spaces associated to a symplectic manifold. Our starting point is a lower bound obtained in an earlier paper with Zapolsky for the…

We provide topological obstructions to the existence of orbit cylinders of symmetric orbits, for mechanical systems preserved by antisymplectic involutions (e.g. the restricted three-body problem). Such cylinders induce continuous paths…

A method of computation of its terms is presented together with some stabilization results. As an application a characterization of symplectic harmonic manifolds is given and a relationship with the C-spectral sequence is indicated.

We study the symplectic semi-characteristic of a closed 4n-dimensional symplectic manifold. First, using the even-degree part of the primitive cohomology, we define the symplectic semi-characteristic. Second, using a vector field with…

We define the symplectic displacement energy of a non-empty subset of a compact symplectic manifold as the infimum of the Hofer-like norm [5] of symplectic diffeomorphisms that displace the set. We show that this energy (like the usual…

The ECH capacities are a sequence of numerical invariants of symplectic four-manifolds which give (sometimes sharp) obstructions to symplectic embeddings. These capacities are defined using embedded contact homology, and establishing their…

We show that the spherical capacity is discontinuous on a smooth family of ellipsoidal shells. Moreover, we prove that the shell capacity is discontinuous on a family of open sets with smooth connected boundaries.

We prove that the generalized symplectic capacities recognize objects in symplectic categories whose objects are of the form $(M, \omega)$, such that $M$ is a compact and 1-connected manifold, $\omega$ is an exact symplectic form on $M$,…

This is the second installment in a series of papers aimed at generalizing symplectic capacities and homologies. We study symmetric versions of symplectic capacities for real symplectic manifolds, and obtain corresponding results for them…

A taming symplectic structure provides an upper bound on the area of an approximately pseudoholomorphic curve in terms of its homology class. We prove that, conversely, an almost complex manifold with such an area bound admits a taming…

We introduce scattering-symplectic manifolds, manifolds with a type of minimally degenerate Poisson structure that is not too restrictive so as to have a large class of examples, yet restrictive enough for standard Poisson invariants to be…

We show, in this note, that on any symplectic supermanifold, even or odd, there exist an infinite dimensional affine space of symmetric connections, compatible to the symplectic form.

We define the notion of extrinsic symplectic symmetric spaces and exhibit some of their properties. We construct large families of examples and show how they fit in the perspective of a complete classification of these manifolds. We also…

For any nonempty, compact and fiberwise convex set $K$ in $T^*\mathbb{R}^n$, we prove an isomorphism between symplectic homology of $K$ and a certain relative homology of loop spaces of $\mathbb{R}^n$. We also prove a formula which computes…

A long-standing conjecture states that all normalized symplectic capacities coincide on the class of convex subsets of ${\mathbb R}^{2n}$. In this note we focus on an asymptotic (in the dimension) version of this conjecture, and show that…

We improve the estimates for the Ekeland--Hofer--Zehnder capacity of convex bodies by Gluskin and Ostrover. In the course of our argument we show that a closed characteristic of minimal action on the boundary of a centrally symmetric convex…

Motivated by relations with a symplectic invariant known as the "cylindrical symplectic capacity", in this note we study the expectation of the area of a minimal projection to a complex line for a randomly rotated cube.

We show that a topological symplectic manifold has a canonically associated bi-Lipschitz structure. As a corollary, we obtain the first examples of non-existence and non-uniqueness for topological symplectic structures. Our arguments hold…

This paper presents a proof of the existence of standard symplectic coordinates near a set of smooth, orthogonally intersecting symplectic submanifolds. It is a generalization of the standard symplectic neighborhood theorem. Moreover, in…
