Fix $t\in [1,\infty]$. Let $S$ be an atomic commutative semigroup and, for all $x\in S$, let $\mathscr{L}_t(S):=\{\|f\|_t:f\in Z(x)\}$ be the "$t$-length set" of $x$ (using the standard $l_p$-space definition of $\|\cdot\|_t$). The…

Let $\pi: P\to B$ be a locally trivial fiber bundle over a connected CW complex $B$ with fiber equal to the closed symplectic manifold $(M,\om)$. Then $\pi$ is said to be a symplectic fiber bundle if its structural group is the group of…

There is a natural action of the braid group on the symmetric matrices with units on the diagonal, appearing in various fields as Singularity Theory, Frobenius Manifolds or Isomonodromic deformations of certain classes of linear…

Each element of the commutator subgroup of a group can be represented as a product of commutators. The minimal number of factors in such a product is called the commutator length of the element. The commutator length of a group is defined…

Suppose that to every non-degenerate simplex Delta in n-dimensional Euclidean space a `center' C(Delta) is assigned so that the following assumptions hold: (i) The map that assigns C(Delta) to Delta commutes with similarities and is…

A symplectic form is called hyperbolic if its pull-back to the universal cover is a differential of a bounded one-form. The present paper is concerned with the properties and constructions of manifolds admitting hyperbolic symplectic forms.…

For a class of symplectic manifolds, we introduce a functional which assigns a real number to any pair of continuous functions on the manifold. This functional has a number of interesting properties. On the one hand, it is Lipschitz with…

In this paper, we examine mapping class group relations of some symplectic manifolds. For each $n\geq 1$ and $k \geq 1$, we show that the $2n$-dimensional Weinstein domain $W = \{f=\delta\} \cap B^{2n+2}$, determined by the degree $k$…

We study Hamiltonian actions on $b$-symplectic manifolds with a focus on the effective case of half the dimension of the manifold. In particular, we prove a Delzant-type theorem that classifies these manifolds using polytopes that reside in…

We investigate the combinatorics and geometry of permutation polytopes associated to cyclic permutation groups, i.e., the convex hulls of cyclic groups of permutation matrices. We give formulas for their dimension and vertex degree. In the…

Two commuting symplectomorphisms of a symplectic manifold give rise to actions on Floer cohomologies of each other. We prove the elliptic relation saying that the supertraces of these two actions are equal. In the case when a…

In the class of nonlinear one-parameter real maps we study those with bifurcation that exhibits period doubling cascade. The fixed points of such a map form a finite discrete real set with dimension (2^n)m, where m is the (odd) number of…

Given a (finite) simplicial complex, we define its $i$-th Laplacian polytope as the convex hull of the columns of its $i$-th Laplacian matrix. This extends Laplacian simplices of finite simple graphs, as introduced by Braun and Meyer. After…

In this paper we characterize the definiteness of the discrete symplectic system, study a nonhomogeneous discrete symplectic system, and introduce the minimal and maximal linear relations associated with these systems. Fundamental…

We consider the symplectic groupoid of pairs $(B,\mathbb{A})$ with $\mathbb A$ unipotent upper-triangular matrices and $B\in GL_n$ being such that $\widetilde {\mathbb A}=B{\mathbb A} B^{\text{T}}$ are also unipotent upper-triangular…

The main purpose of this paper is to provide a description of the fundamental group of a symplectic manifold in terms of Floer theoretic objects. As an application, we show that when counted with a suitable notion of multiplicity, non…

Let $F$ be a field which is, either local non archimedean, or finite, of residual charcateristic $p$ but of characteristic different from $2$. Let $W$ be a symplectic space of finite dimension over $F$. Suppose $R$ is a field of…

In this paper, we find necessary and sufficient conditions to identify pairs of matrices $X$ and $Y$ for which there exists $\Delta \in \mathbb C^{n,n}$ such that $\Delta+\Delta^*$ is positive semidefinite and $\Delta X=Y$. Such a $\Delta$…

We prove that cocompact arithmetic lattices in a simple Lie group are uniformly discrete if and only if the Salem numbers are uniformly bounded away from $1$. We also prove an analogous result for semisimple Lie groups. Finally, we shed…
