We give simple characterizations of contact 1-forms in terms of Dirac structures. We also relate normal almost contact structures to the theory of Dirac structures.

The article is devoted to the investigation of groups of diffeomorphisms and loops of manifolds over ultra-metric fields of zero and positive characteristics. Different types of topologies are considered on groups of loops and…

Harmonicity of holomorphic maps between various subclasses of almost contact metric manifolds is discussed. Consequently, some new results are obtained. Also some known results are recovered, some of them are generalized and some of them…

For each connected complex reductive group G, we find a family of new examples of complex quasi-Hamiltonian G-spaces with G-valued moment maps. These spaces arise naturally as moduli spaces of (suitably framed) meromorphic connections on…

We describe a contact analog of the symplectic cut construction. As an application we show that the group of contactomorphisms for a particular overtwisted contact structure on the three sphere contains countably many nonconjugate two tori.

We show that every quasiconformal contact foliation supports an invariant metric and characterise such foliations by the dynamical property of $C^1$-equicontinuity. We prove that a generalisation of the Weinstein conjecture holds for…

A connected Fano complex-contact manifold is isomorphic to the kaehlerian C-space of Boothby type with a natural complex-contact structure corresponding to a non-abelian simple complex Lie algebra if the contact line bundle is very ample.…

We study the isometry group of a globally hyperbolic spatially compact Lorentz surface. Such a group acts on the circle, and we show that when the isometry group acts non properly, the subgroups of $\mathrm{Diff}(\mathbb{S}^1)$ obtained are…

Given a 2-manifold, a fundamental question to ask is which groups can be realized as the isometry group of a Riemannan metric of constant curvature on the manifold. In this paper, we give a nearly complete classification of such groups for…

We consider an integrable Hamiltonian system weakly coupled with a pendulum-type system. For each energy level within some range, the uncoupled system is assumed to possess a normally hyperbolic invariant manifold diffeomorphic to a…

We prove that any contact form on the standard contact 5-sphere with Zoll Reeb flow is strictly contactomorphic to a scaling of the standard Zoll contact form.

We establish a relation between the growth of the cylindrical contact homology of a contact manifold and the topological entropy of Reeb flows on this manifold. We show that if a contact manifold $(M,\xi)$ admits a hypertight contact form…

We prove that if a contact manifold admits an exact filling then every local contactomorphism isotopic to the identity admits a translated point in the interior of its support, in the sense of Sandon [San11b]. In addition we prove that if…
