We study Hamiltonian systems near a compact symplectic Morse-Bott minimum. Our first result shows that if the flow is Zoll (that is, it induces a free circle action) along a sequence of energy levels converging to the minimum, then the…
For actions with a dense orbit of a connected noncompact simple Lie group $G$, we obtain some global rigidity results when the actions preserve certain geometric structures. In particular, we prove that for a $G$-action to be equivalent to…
Let $M$ be a $2n$-dimensional closed symplectic manifold admitting a Hamiltonian circle action with isolated fixed points. We show that if $M$ contains an $S^1$-invariant symplectic hypersurface $D$ such that $M\setminus D$ is a homology…
In this paper we study holomorphic actions of the complex multiplicative group on complex manifolds around a singular (fixed) point. We prove linearization results for the germ of action and also for the whole action under some conditions…
Every action on a Poisson manifold by Poisson diffeomorphisms lifts to a Hamiltonian action on its symplectic groupoid which has a canonically defined momentum map. We study various properties of this momentum map as well as its use in…
An action of a topological semigroup S on X is compactifiable if this action is a restriction of a jointly continuous action of S on a Hausdorff compact space Y. A topological semigroup S is compactifiable if the left action of S on itself…
The problem of equivariant rigidity is the $\Gamma$-homeomorphism classification of $\Gamma$-actions on manifolds with compact quotient and with contractible fixed sets for all finite subgroups of $\Gamma$. In other words, this is the…
We prove the action-angle theorem in the general, and most natural, context of integrable systems on Poisson manifolds, thereby generalizing the classical proof, which is given in the context of symplectic manifolds. The topological part of…
If a finite p-group G acts continuously on a compact topological manifold M then, with some bound C depending on M alone, G has a subgroup H of index at most C such that the H-action on M has at most C stabilizer subgroups. This result…
Let X(\Sigma) be a smooth projective toric variety for a complex torus T_\C. In this paper, a real T_\C-invariant Poisson structure \Pi_\Sigma is constructed on the complex manifold X(\Sigma), the symplectic leaves of which are the…
This note describes some recent results about the homotopy properties of Hamiltonian loops in various manifolds, including toric manifolds and one point blow ups. We describe conditions under which a circle action does not contract in the…
This paper studies the question of when a loop $\phi$ in the group Symp$(M,\omega)$ of symplectomorphisms of a symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$ is isotopic to a loop that is generated by a time-dependent Hamiltonian function. (Loops with…
In this paper, we study deformations of crossed homomorphisms on Lie groups by means of the cohomology which controls them. Using the Moser type argument, we obtain several rigidity results of crossed homomorphisms on Lie groups. We further…
Some generalizations of spin Sutherland models descend from `master integrable systems' living on Heisenberg doubles of compact semisimple Lie groups. The master systems represent Poisson--Lie counterparts of the systems of free motion…
We study stationary actions of locally compact measured groups through the structure and regularity of their Radon-Nikodym cocycles. We start with two dynamical consequences of stationarity. Extending a theorem of Furstenberg-Glasner from…
In this paper we introduce invariants of semi-free Hamiltonian actions of $S\sp 1$ on compact symplectic manifolds (which satisfy some technical conditions related to positivity) using the space of solutions to certain gauge theoretical…
Proper group actions are ubiquitous in mathematics and have many of the attractive features of actions of compact groups. In this survey, we discuss proper actions of Lie groups on smooth manifolds. If the group dimension is sufficiently…
We investigate conformal relative equilibria for Hamiltonian systems on exact Poisson manifolds equipped with scaling symmetries. By introducing conformally Poisson actions and conformal momentum maps, we characterize these equilibria…
We study Hamiltonian actions of compact Lie groups K on Kaehler manifolds which extend to a holomorphic action of the complexified group K^C. For a closed normal subgroup L of K we show that the Kaehlerian reduction with respect to L is a…
In this paper we consider symplectic 4-manifolds $(M,\omega)$ with $c_1(M,\omega)=0$ which admit a Hamiltonian $S^1$-action together with an equivariant Maslov condition on orbits of the group action. We call such spaces {\em special…
