A famous result of Jurgen Moser states that a symplectic form on a compact manifold cannot be deformed within its cohomology class to an inequivalent symplectic form. It is well known that this does not hold in general for noncompact…
In the literature, there are two different versions of Hard Lefschetz theorems for a compact Sasakian manifold. The first version, due to Kacimi-Alaoui, asserts that the basic cohomology of a compact Sasakian manifold satisfies the…
Let $M^{2n}$ be a compact Riemannian manifold of non-positive (resp. negative) sectional curvature. We call $(M,J,\theta)$ a $d$(bounded) locally conformally K\"{a}hler manifold if the lifted Lee form $\tilde{\theta}$ on the universal…
A classical result of D. McDuff asserts that a simply-connected complete Kaehler manifold $(M,g,\omega)$ with non positive sectional curvature admits global symplectic coordinates through a symplectomorphism $\Psi: M\rightarrow R^{2n}$…
It is shown that the geometry of locally homogeneous multisymplectic manifolds (that is, smooth manifolds equipped with a closed nondegenerate form of degree > 1, which is locally homogeneous of degree k with respect to a local Euler field)…
We study a special type of almost complex structures, called pure and full and introduced by T.J. Li and W. Zhang, in relation to symplectic structures and Hard Lefschetz condition. We provide sufficient conditions to the existence of the…
We consider invariant symplectic connections $\nabla$ on homogeneous symplectic manifolds $(M,\omega)$ with curvature of Ricci type. Such connections are solutions of a variational problem studied by Bourgeois and Cahen, and provide an…
Motivated by the work of Cappell, Deturck, Gluch and Miller, we extend the notion of cohomology of harmonic forms (of a compact manifold with boundary) to the abstract setting of Hilbert complexes. Then, we present some geometric…
From the cohomological point of view the symplectomorphism group $Sympl (M)$ of a symplectic manifold is `` tamer'' than the diffeomorphism group. The existence of invariant polynomials in the Lie algebra $\frak {sympl }(M)$, the symplectic…
We show there is a class of symplectic Lie algebra representations over any field of characteristic not 2 or 3 that have many of the exceptional algebraic and geometric properties of both symmetric three forms in two dimensions and…
Consider a Hamiltonian action of a compact Lie group on a symplectic manifold which has the strong Lefschetz property. We establish an equivariant version of the Merkulov-Guillemin $d\delta$-lemma and an improved version of the…
In this paper we consider a geometric variant of Hofer's symplectic energy, which was first considered by Eliashberg and Hofer in connection with their study of the extent to which the interior of a region in a symplectic manifold…
We prove that on a compact Sasakian manifold $(M, \eta, g)$ of dimension $2n+1$, for any $0 \le p \le n$ the wedge product with $\eta \wedge (d\eta)^p$ defines an isomorphism between the spaces of harmonic forms $\Omega^{n-p}_\Delta (M)$…
For a finite dimensional symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$ with a symplectic form $\omega$, corresponding loop space ($LM=C^\infty(S^1,M)$) admits a weak symplectic form $\Omega^\omega$. We prove that the loop space over $\mbr^n$ admits…
It is shown that the de Rham complex of a symplectic manifold $M$ satisfying the hard Lefschetz condition is formal. Moreover, it is shown that the differential Gerstenhaber-Batalin-Vilkoviski algebra associated to such a symplectic…
In this paper we consider the ``symplectic'' version of the Euler equations studied by Ebin \cite{ebin}. We show that these equations are globally well-posed on the Sobolev space $H^s(\mathbb{R}^{2n})$ for $n \geq 1$ and $s > 2n/2+1$. The…
Let $X$ be a Hamiltonian vector field defined on a symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$, $g$ a nowhere vanishing smooth function defined on an open dense subset $M^0$ of $M$. We will say that the vector field $Y = gX$ is conformally…
Motivated by understanding the limiting case of a certain systolic inequality we study compact Riemannian manifolds having all harmonic 1-forms of constant length. We give complete characterizations as far as K\"ahler and hyperbolic…
We provide a new topological interpretation of the symplectic properties of gluing equations for triangulations of hyperbolic 3-manifolds, first discovered by Neumann and Zagier. We also extend the symplectic properties to more general…
We exhibit two three-parameter families of locally conformal symplectic forms on the solvmanifold $M_{n,k}$ considered in [1], and show, using the Hodge-de Rham theory for the Lichnerowicz cohomology that that they are not $d_{\omega}$…
