Using a "Hodge decomposition" of symplectic isotopies on a compact symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$, we construct a norm on the identity component in the group of all symplectic diffeomorphisms of $(M,\omega)$ whose restriction to the group…

We study geodesics of Hofer's metric on the space of Lagrangian submanifolds in arbitrary symplectic manifolds from the variational point of view. We give a characterization of length-critical paths with respect to this metric. As a result,…

In this paper, we construct a Hamiltonian Floer theory based invariant called relative symplectic cohomology, which assigns a module over the Novikov ring to compact subsets of closed symplectic manifolds. We show the existence of…

We introduce the concept of pseudo symplectic capacities which is a mild generalization of that of symplectic capacities. As a generalization of the Hofer-Zehnder capacity we construct a Hofer-Zehnder type pseudo symplectic capacity and…

In the case where both the domain and target manifolds are almost Hermitian, we introduce the concept of Hermitian pluriharmonic maps. We prove that any holomorphic or anti-holomorphic map between almost Hermitian manifolds is Hermitian…

We develop sheaf-theoretic methods to deal with non-smooth objects in symplectic geometry. We show the completeness of a derived category of sheaves with respect to the interleaving distance and construct a sheaf quantization of a…

Let $(M,\omega)$ be an aspherical symplectic manifold, which is closed or convex. Let $U$ be an open set in $M$, which admits a circle action generated by an autonomous Hamiltonian $H \in C^\infty(U)$, such that each orbit of the circle…

In this paper, we study the deformation limit of compact Kahler manifolds. We show that the limit to be a manifold in the Fujiki class C is equivalent to the finiteness of the upper volume. We also prove the Streets-Tian conjecture for a…

We establish a criterion on wrapped Floer homology of an exact Lagrangian sub- manifold in a Liouville domain, which ensures the almost-existence of Hamiltonian chords near a given energy level. To this purpose we introduce a relative…

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…
