We generalize a theorem of Delzant classifying compact connected symplectic manifolds with completely integrable torus actions to certain singular symplectic spaces. The assumption on singularities is that if they are not finite quotient…
We establish connections between contact isometry groups of certain contact manifolds and compactly supported symplectomorphism groups of their symplectizations. We apply these results to investigate the space of symplectic embeddings of…
We show that if a Lie group acts properly on a co-oriented contact manifold preserving the contact structure, then the contact quotient is topologically a stratified space (in the sense that a neighborhood of a point in the quotient is a…
We discuss a particular class of rational Gorenstein singularities, which we call symplectic. A normal variety V has symplectic singularities if its smooth part carries a closed symplectic 2-form whose pull-back in any resolution X --> V…
We give a combinatorial description of the embedded contact complex (ECC) of a certain family of contact toric lens spaces that we call concave lens spaces. We also define a notion of a concave toric domain that generalizes the usual…
Recently, extending work by Karshon, Kessler and Pinsonnault, Borisov and McDuff showed that a given symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$ has a finite number of distinct toric structures. Moreover, McDuff also showed a product of two projective…
We give an intrinsic definition of toric symplectic stacks, and show that they are classified by simple convex polytopes equipped with some additional combinatorial data. This generalizes Delzant's classification of toric symplectic…
According to Lerman, compact connected toric contact 3-manifolds with a non-free toric action whose moment cone spans an angle greater than $\pi$ are overtwisted, thus non-fillable. In contrast, we show that all compact connected toric…
We introduce the cutting construction of possibly non-compact symplectic toric manifolds, in particular, toric symplectic cones that correspond to a weakly convex good cone. Since the symplectization of a toric contact manifold is a toric…
In this article we study covering spaces of symplectic toric orbifolds and symplectic toric orbifold bundles. In particular, we show that all symplectic toric orbifold coverings are quotients of some symplectic toric orbifold by a finite…
A symplectic toric orbifold is a compact connected orbifold $M$, a symplectic form $\omega$ on $M$, and an effective Hamiltonian action of a torus $T$ on $M$, where the dimension of $T$ is half the dimension of $M$. We prove that there is a…
We classify 1-dimensional connected dually flat manifolds $M$ that are toric in the sense of [Molitor, arXiv:2109.04839], and show that the corresponding torifications are complex space forms. Special emphasis is put on the case where M is…
We set up a topological framework for degenerations of symplectic manifolds into singular spaces paying a special attention to the behavior of Lagrangian manifolds and their (holomorphic) membranes. We show that degenerations into singular…
After observing that the well-known convexity theorems of symplectic geometry also hold for compact contact manifolds with an effective action of a torus whose Reeb vector field corresponds to an element of the Lie algebra of the torus, we…
We show that generic symplectic quotients of a Hamiltonian $G$-space $M$ by the action of a compact connected Lie group $G$ are also symplectic quotients of the same manifold $M$ by a compact torus. The torus action in question arises from…
Symplectic torus bundles $\xi:T^{2}\to E\to B$ are classified by the second cohomology group of $B$ with local coefficients $H_{1}(T^{2})$. For $B$ a compact, orientable surface, the main theorem of this paper gives a necessary and…
We define a class of symplectic fibrations called symplectic configurations. They are natural generalization of Hamiltonian fibrations. Their geometric and topological properties are investigated. We are mainly concentrated on integral…
An important class of contact 3--manifolds are those that arise as links of rational surface singularities with reduced fundamental cycle. We explicitly describe symplectic caps (concave fillings) of such contact 3--manifolds. As an…
Let $K$ be a compact Lie group. We introduce the process of symplectic implosion, which associates to every Hamiltonian $K$-manifold a stratified space called the imploded cross-section. It bears a resemblance to symplectic reduction, but…
In this research announcement we associate to each convex polytope, possibly nonrational and nonsimple, a family of compact spaces that are stratified by quasifolds, i.e. the strata are locally modelled by $\R^k$ modulo the action of a…
