This paper has two purposes. The first is to classify all those versions of the Toda equations which govern the existence of $\tau$-primitive harmonic maps from a surface into a homogeneous space $G/T$ for which $G$ is a noncomplex…
Let $M$ be a closed and connected manifold, $H:T^*M\times \mathbb{R} / \mathbb{Z} \to \mathbb{R}$ a Tonelli $1$-periodic Hamiltonian and $\mathcal{L} \subset T^*M$ a Lagrangian submanifold Hamiltonianly isotopic to the zero section. We…
Let $(M, g, \omega, f, \lambda)$ be a K\"{a}hler gradient Ricci soliton in real dimension four. One first observes that it is an integrable Hamiltonian system in a classical sense. Indeed, all known complete examples are toric and the…
We show the existence of large $\mathcal C^1$ open sets of area preserving endomorphisms of the two-torus which have no dominated splitting and are non-uniformly hyperbolic, meaning that Lebesgue almost every point has a positive and a…
We present a new and simpler proof of the fact that any Lagrangian $\mathbb{R}P^2$ in $T^*\mathbb{R}P^2$ is Hamiltonian isotopic to the zero section. Our proof mirrors the one given by Li and Wu for the Hamiltonian uniqueness of Lagrangians…
Let $D$ be a bounded logarithmically convex complete Reinhardt domain in $\mathbb{C}^n$ centered at the origin. Generalizing a result for the one-dimensional case of the unit disk, we prove that the $C^*$-algebra generated by Toeplitz…
In 2002 Polterovich has notably established that on closed aspherical symplectic manifolds, Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of finite order, which we call Hamiltonian torsion, must in fact be trivial. In this paper we prove the first…
For any symmorphic magnetic space group $G$, it is proven that topological band insulators with vanishing first Chern numbers cannot have a groundstate composed of a single, energetically-isolated band. This no-go statement implies that the…
We prove three formulas for computing topological pressure of $C^1$-generic conservative diffeomorphism and show the continuity of topological pressure with respect to these diffeomorphisms. We prove for these generic diffeomorphisms that…
We show that, up to biholomorphism, there is at most one complete $T^n$-invariant shrinking gradient K\"ahler-Ricci soliton on a non-compact toric manifold $M$. We also establish uniqueness without assuming $T^n$-invariance if the Ricci…
In this paper we consider torus homeomorphisms $f$ homotopic to Dehn twists. We prove that if the vertical rotation set of $f$ is reduced to zero, then there exists a compact connected essential "horizontal" set K, invariant under $f$. In…
We consider a natural Hamiltonian system with two degrees of freedom and Hamiltonian $H=\|p\|^2/2+V(q)$. The configuration space $M$ is a closed surface (for noncompact $M$ certain conditions at infinity are required). It is well known that…
Let X be a smooth complex projective variety of dimension n equipped with a very ample Hermitian line bundle L. In the first part of the paper, we show that if there exists a toric degeneration of X satisfying some natural hypotheses (which…
We show that any $(\C ^*)^n$-invariant stably complex structure on a topological toric manifold of dimension $2n$ is integrable. We also show that such a manifold is weakly $(\C ^*)^n$-equivariantly isomorphic to a toric manifold.
Let $M$ be a symplectic manifold, equipped with a Hamiltonian action of a torus $T$. We give an explicit formula for the rational cohomology ring of the symplectic quotient $M//T$ in terms of the cohomology ring of $M$ and fixed point data.…
A two-dimensional topological crystalline insulator (TCI) with a single unit cell (u.c.) thickness is demonstrated here. To that end, one first shows that tetragonal ($C_4$ in-plane) symmetry is not a necessary condition for the creation of…
We study the topological entropy of the Lagrangian flow restricted to an energy level $E_{L}^{-1}(c) \subset TM$ for $ c >e_0(L)$. We prove that if the flow of the Tonelli Lagrangian $ L: M \to \mathbb{R}$, on a closed manifold of dimension…
We apply the $C^*$-algebraic formalism of topological T-duality due to Mathai and Rosenberg to a broad class of topological spaces that include the torus bundles appearing in string theory compactifications with duality twists, such as…
Let L be a D-dimensional submanifold of a 2D-dimensional exact symplectic manifold (M, w) and let f be a symplectic diffeomorphism onf M. In this article, we deal with the link between the dynamics of f restricted to L and the geometry of L…
We study the compact monotone Fukaya category of $T^*S^n$, for $n\geq 2$, and show that it is split-generated by two classes of objects: the zero-section $S^n$ (equipped with suitable bounding cochains) and a 1-parameter family of monotone…
