Riemannian geometry is a particular case of Hamiltonian mechanics: the orbits of the hamiltonian $H=\frac{1}{2}g^{ij}p_{i}p_{j}$ are the geodesics. Given a symplectic manifold (\Gamma,\omega), a hamiltonian $H:\Gamma\to\mathbb{R}$ and a…

We prove a rigidity theorem in Poisson geometry around compact Poisson submanifolds, using the Nash-Moser fast convergence method. In the case of one-point submanifolds (fixed points), this immediately implies a stronger version of Conn's…
