We study the dynamics and symplectic topology of energy hypersurfaces of mechanical Hamiltonians on twisted cotangent bundles. We pay particular attention to periodic orbits, displaceability, stability and the contact type property, and the…

In this paper, we develop a mini-max theory of the action functional over the semi-infinite cycles via the chain level Floer homology theory and construct spectral invariants of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms on arbitrary, especially on {\it…

Let $\Lambda$ be a compact locally maximal invariant set of a $C^2$-diffeomorphism $f:M\to M$ on a smooth Riemannian manifold $M$. In this paper we study the topological pressure $P_{\rm top}(\phi)$ (with respect to the dynamical system…

We consider two categories related to symplectic manifolds: 1. Objects are symplectic manifolds and morphisms are symplectic embeddings. 2. Objects are symplectic manifolds endowed with compatible almost complex structure and morphisms are…

We present a symplectic integrator, based on the canonical midpoint rule, for classical spin systems in which each spin is a unit vector in $\mathbb{R}^3$. Unlike splitting methods, it is defined for all Hamiltonians, and is…

The investigation of symmetries of b-symplectic manifolds and folded-symplectic manifolds is well-understood when the group under consideration is a torus (see, for instance, [GMPS,GLPR, GMW18a] for b-symplectic manifolds and [CGP, CM] for…

Let F be a fibration on a simply-connected base with symplectic fibre (M, \omega). Assume that the fibre is nilpotent and T^{2k}-separable for some integer k or a nilmanifold. Then our main theorem, Theorem 1.8, gives a necessary and…

We formulate elementary SFT spectral invariants of a large class of symplectic cobordisms and stable Hamiltonian manifolds, in any dimension. We give criteria for the strong closing property using these invariants, and verify these criteria…

The main purpose of this article is to extend some of the ideas from Schubert calculus to the more general setting of Hamiltonian torus actions on compact symplectic manifolds with isolated fixed points. Given a generic component of the…

We generalize the "hamiltonian topology" on hamiltonian isotopies to an intrinsic "symplectic topology" on the space of symplectic isotopies. We use it to define the group $SSympeo(M,\omega)$ of strong symplectic homeomorphisms, which…

A symplectic semitoric manifold is a symplectic $4$-manifold endowed with a Hamiltonian $(S^1 \times \mathbb{R})$-action satisfying certain conditions. The goal of this paper is to construct a new symplectic invariant of symplectic…

If the circle acts in a Hamiltonian way on a compact symplectic manifold of dimension $2n$, then there are at least $n+1$ fixed points. The case that there are exactly $n+1$ isolated fixed points has its importance due to various reasons.…

Let $M$ be a compact symplectic manifold on which a compact torus $T$ acts Hamiltonialy with a moment map $\mu$. Suppose there exists a symplectic involution $\theta:M\to M$, such that $\mu\circ\theta=-\mu$. Assuming that 0 is a regular…
