Given the Euclidean space $\R^{2n+2}$ endowed with a constant symplectic structure and the standard flat connection, and given a polynomial of degree 2 on that space, Baguis and Cahen have defined a reduction procedure which yields a…
We prove that for $n\geq2$ there exists a compact subset $X$ of the closed ball in $R^{2n}$ of radius $\sqrt{2}$, such that $X$ has Hausdorff dimension $n$ and does not symplectically embed into the standard open symplectic cylinder. The…
This paper shows that there are symplectic four-manifolds M with the following property: a single isotopy class of smooth embedded two-spheres in M contains infinitely many Lagrangian submanifolds, no two of which are isotopic as Lagrangian…
Assume that $rB_{2}^{n} \subset P$ for some polytope $P \subset \mathbb{R}^n$, where $r \in (\frac{1}{2},1]$. Denote by $\mathcal{F}$ the set of facets of $P$, and by $N=N(P,B_2^n)$ the covering number of $P$ by the Euclidean unit ball…
All previously published work on isomorphic grid embeddings into n-cubes has been restricted to binary n-cubes. This paper describes a straightforward method for embedding a A x B grid isomorphically into a k-ary n-cube with k>2.
We show that a space with a finite asymptotic dimension is embeddable in a non-positively curved manifold. Then we prove that if a uniformly contractible manifold X is uniformly embeddable in $\R^n$ or non-positively curved n-dimensional…
We show that a pseudo-holomorphic embedding of an almost-complex $2n$-manifold into almost-complex $(2n + 2)$-Euclidean space exists if and only if there is a CR regular embedding of the $2n$-manifold into complex $(n + 1)$-space. We remark…
We classify rotary (orientably-regular) maps whose underlying graphs are multicycles. For the multicycle $\mathrm{C}_n^{(\lambda)}$ of length $n$ and edge-multiplicity $\lambda$, we determine all rotary embeddings for $n\geqslant 3$ and…
This paper addresses several isotopy problems on $4$-manifolds. First, we classify the isotopy classes of embeddings of $\Sigma$ in $\Sigma\times S^2$ that are geometrically dual to $\{\mbox{pt}\}\times S^2$, where $\Sigma$ is a closed…
In this note, we give a new and simple proof of a result in {\cite{DX1}} which states that any smooth complete self-shrinker in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with second fundamental form of constant length must be a generalized cylinder $\mathbb{S}^k…
We consider a combinatorial reconfiguration problem on a subclass of quadrangulations of surfaces called square-tiled surfaces. Our elementary move is a shear in a cylinder that corresponds to a well-chosen sequence of diagonal flips that…
We show that if A is a d-dimensional abelian variety in a smooth quadric of dimension 2d then d=1 and A is an elliptic curve of bidegree (2,2) on a quadric. This extends a result of Van de Ven which says that A only can be embedded in…
Let $X$ be any rational ruled symplectic four-manifold. Given a symplectic embedding $\iota:B_{c}\into X$ of the standard ball of capacity $c$ into $X$, consider the corresponding symplectic blow-up $\tX_{\iota}$. In this paper, we study…
We introduce the notion of a symplectic capacity relative to a coisotropic submanifold of a symplectic manifold, and we construct two examples of such capacities through modifications of the Hofer-Zehnder capacity. As a consequence, we…
In an earlier paper we explained how to convert the problem of symplectically embedding one 4-dimensional ellipsoid into another into the problem of embedding a certain set of disjoint balls into \CP^2 by using a new way to desingularize…
Let $Z^2$ denote the standard lattice in the plane $R^2$. We prove that given a finite subset $S\subset R^2$ and $\eps>0$, then for all sufficiently large dilations $t>0$ there exists a rotation $\rho\colon R^2\to R^2$ around the origin…
We show that the rate of convergence on the approximation of volumes of a convex symmetric polytope P in R^n by its dual L_{p$-centroid bodies is independent of the geometry of P. In particular we show that if P has volume 1,…
In this paper we show the existence of a closed, embedded $\lambda$-hypersurfaces $\Sigma \subset \mathbb{R}^{2n}$. The hypersurface is diffeomorhic to $\mathbb{S}^{n-1} \times \mathbb{S}^{n-1} \times \mathbb{S}^1$ and exhibits $SO(n)…
We obtain compact orientable embedded surfaces with constant mean curvature $0<H<\frac{1}{2}$ and arbitrary genus in $\mathbb{S}^2\times\mathbb{R}$. These surfaces have dihedral symmetry and desingularize a pair of spheres with mean…
We say that a topological $n$-manifold $N$ is a cubical $n$-manifold if it is contained in the $n$-skeleton of the canonical cubulation $\mathcal{C}$ of ${\mathbb{R}}^{n+k}$ ($k\geq1$). In this paper, we prove that any closed, oriented…
