We discuss normal forms and symplectic invariants of parabolic orbits and cuspidal tori in integrable Hamiltonian systems with two degrees of freedom. Such singularities appear in many integrable systems in geometry and mathematical physics…
We study McDuff-Salamon's Problem 46 by showing that there exist closed manifolds of dimension $\geq 6$ admitting cohomologous symplectic forms with different Gromov widths. The examples are motivated by Ruan's early example of deformation…
By a special symplectic connection we mean a torsion free connection which is either the Levi-Civita connection of a Bochner-K\"ahler metric of arbitrary signature, a Bochner-bi-Lagrangian connection, a connection of Ricci type or a…
We construct an example of a cork that remains exotic after taking a connected sum with $S^2 \times S^2$. Combined with a work of Akbulut-Ruberman, this implies the existence of an exotic pair of contractible 4-manifolds which remains…
We investigate orthogonal and symplectic bundles with parabolic structure, over a curve.
Let G be a complex symplectic group. We introduce a G x (C ^x) ^{l + 1}-variety N_{l}, which we call the l-exotic nilpotent cone. Then, we realize the Hecke algebra H of type C_n ^(1) with three parameters via equivariant algebraic K-theory…
In this essay we present an outer product on R^6, and we show that R^6 with this outer product can take three kinds of Lie brackets. We prove that R^6 with these Lie brackets take the structures of so(4), so(2,2) and so(3,1). We also deduce…
An anisotropic elastic material is referred to as exotic when, under specific loadings, its mechanical response exhibits a higher degree of symmetry than that prescribed by its intrinsic material symmetry. Such materials, which may be…
We study symplectic deformation types of minimal symplectic fillings of links of quotient surface singularities. In particular, there are only finitely many symplectic deformation types for each quotient surface singularity.
We present a canonical form for a symplectic involution $S\in Sp(2g,\mathbb{Z})$, $S^2=1$; the construction is algorithmic. Application is made in the Riemann surface setting.
Exact integral expressions of the skew orthogonal polynomials involved in Orthogonal (beta=1) and Symplectic (beta=4) random matrix ensembles are obtained: the (even rank) skew orthogonal polynomials are average characteristic polynomials…
We give explicit estimates for the Stirling numbers of the second kind $S(n,m)$. With a few exceptions, such estimates are asymptotically sharp. The form of these estimates varies according to $m$ lying in the central or non-central regions…
A problem with non-classical conditions on all the boundary not requiring agreement conditions is considered for a sixth order pseudoparapolic equation. The equivalence of these conditions with the classic boundary condition is…
Let $R$ be a finite commutative ring with identity. In this paper, we give a necessary condition for the existence of an orthogonal decomposition of the special linear Lie algebra over $R$. Additionally, we study orthogonal decompositions…
This survey paper addresses uniqueness questions for symplectic forms on closed manifolds, explains what is known in several examples, and reviews some open problems.
We construct symplectic embeddings of ellipsoids of dimension $2n \ge 6$ into the product of a 4-ball or 4-dimensional cube with Euclidean space. A sequence of these embeddings can be shown to be optimal.
We construct a 6-manifold M which admits a smooth circle action and a symplectic form w such that if w' is another symplectic form on M equivalent to w, then (M,w') does not admit a symplectic circle action.
Every symplectic Lie algebra with degenerate (including non-abelian nilpotent symplectic Lie algebras) has the structure of a quadratic extension. We give a standard model and describe the equivalence classes on the level of corresponding…
We present a method to construct irreducible symplectic varieties by studying terminalisations of quotient of hyper-K\"ahler manifolds by non-natural group actions. In particular, we construct irreducible symplectic varieties of dimension…
We give a method to obtain new 7-dimensional Lie algebras endowed with closed and coclosed G2-structures starting from 6-dimensional Lie algebras with symplectic half- at SU(3)-structures and half- at SU(3)- structures, respectively.…
