We prove that for any compact toric symplectic manifold, if a Hamiltonian diffeomorphism admits more fixed points, counted homologically, than the total Betti number, then it has infinitely many simple periodic points. This provides a vast…

In this paper, we treat an open problem related to the number of periodic orbits of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms on closed symplectic manifolds, so-called generic Conley conjecture. Generic Conley conjecture states that generically…

We prove the Conley conjecture for negative monotone, closed symplectic manifolds, i.e., the existence of infinitely many periodic orbits for Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of such manifolds.

We study periodic orbits on a nondegenerate dynamically convex starshaped hypersurface in $\mathbb{R}^{2n}$ along the lines of Long and Zhu, but using properties of the $S^1$-equivariant symplectic homology. We prove that there exist at…

The bounded orbit conjecture says that every homeomorphism on the plane with each of its orbits being bounded must have a fixed point. Brouwer's translation theorem asserts that the conjecture is true for orientation preserving…

We state that any constant curvature Riemannian metric with conical singularities of constant sign curvature on a compact (orientable) surface $S$ can be realized as a convex polyhedron in a Riemannian or Lorentzian) space-form. Moreover…

We give a sharp lower bound for the number of geometrically distinct contractible periodic orbits of dynamically convex Reeb flows on prequantizations of symplectic manifolds that are not aspherical. Several consequences of this result are…

We give a detailed construction of a proper C^2-smooth function on R^4 such that its Hamiltonian flow has no periodic orbits on at least one regular level set. This result can be viewed as a C^2-smooth counterexample to the Hamiltonian…

We generalize the following result of White: Suppose $N$ is a compact, strictly convex domain in $\RR^3$ with smooth boundary. Let $\Sigma$ be a compact 2-manifold with boundary. Then a generic smooth curve $\Gamma\cong \partial\Sigma$ in…

A smooth counterexample to the Hamiltonian Seifert conjecture for six-dimensional symplectic manifolds is found. In particular, we construct a smooth proper function on the symplectic 2n-dimensional vector space, 2n > 4, such that one of…

Let $\Sigma\subset \R^{2n}$ with $n\geq2$ be any $C^2$ compact convex hypersurface and only has finitely geometrically distinct closed characteristics. Based on Y.Long and C.Zhu 's index jump methods \cite{LoZ1}, we prove that there are at…

We prove a conjecture of Toponogov on complete convex planes, namely that such planes must contain an umbilic point, albeit at infinity. Our proof is indirect. It uses Fredholm regularity of an associated Riemann-Hilbert boundary value…
