For a symplectic manifold $(M,\om)$ with exact symplectic form we construct a 2-cocycle on the group of symplectomorphisms and indicate cases when this cocycle is not trivial.

We consider a connected symplectic manifold $M$ acted on by a connected Lie group $G$ in a Hamiltonian fashion. If $G$ is compact, we prove give an Equivalence Theorem for the symplectic manifolds whose squared moment map $\parallel \mu…

We define and study the Picard group of a monoid scheme and the class group of a normal monoid scheme. To do so, we develop some ideal theory for (pointed abelian) noetherian monoids, including primary decomposition and discrete valuations.…

Mark and Paupert devised a general method for obtaining presentations for arithmetic non-cocompact lattices, $\Gamma$, in isometry groups of negatively curved symmetric spaces. The method involves a classical theorem of Macbeath applied to…

Let $(\X,\omega)$ be a compact symplectic orbifold. We define $\pi_1(Ham(\X, \omega))$, the fundamental group of the 2-group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of $(\X, \omega)$, and construct a group homomorphism from $\pi_1(Ham(\X, \omega))$…

We show that if $g$ is a Riemannian metric on a closed piecewise locally symmetric manifold $M$, then the lift of $g$ to the universal cover $\widetilde{M}$ has a discrete isometry group. We also show that the index $[\Isom(\widetilde{M}):…

In this paper we describe a method to establish when a symplectic manifold $M$ with semi-free Hamiltonian $S^{1}$-action is unique up to isomorphism (equivariant symplectomorphism). This will rely on a study of the symplectic topology of…

We classify the pairs $(C,G)$ where $C$ is a seminormal curve over an arbitrary field $k$ and $G$ is a smooth connected algebraic group acting faithfully on $C$ with a dense orbit, and we determine the equivariant Picard group of $C$. We…

We show that continuous bounded group cohomology stabilizes along the sequences of real or complex symplectic Lie groups, and deduce that bounded group cohomology stabilizes along sequences of lattices in them, such as…

In this note we classify invariant star products with quantum momentum maps on symplectic manifolds by means of an equivariant characteristic class taking values in the equivariant cohomology. We establish a bijection between the…

Let $B$ be a twisted Poisson manifold with a fixed tropical affine structure given by a period bundle $P$. In this paper, we study the classification of almost symplectically complete isotropic realizations (ASCIRs) over $B$ in the spirit…

In this paper, we develop methods for calculating equivariant homology from equivariant Morse functions on a closed manifold with the action of a finite group. We show how to alter $G$-equivariant Morse functions to a stable one, where the…

In this paper, we introduce a concept of B-minimal sub-manifolds and discuss the stability of such a sub-manifold in a Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$. Assume $B(x)$ is a smooth function on $M$. By definition, we call a sub-manifold $\Sigma$…

Let X be a complex affine curve (not isomorphic to the affine line), and let Pic(D) be the group of autoequivalences of the category of D(X)-modules. Cannings and Holland have shown that Pic(D) fits into an exact sequence in which the other…

We show that a chiral sector of a symplectic group manifold possesses a symmetry similar to, but somewhat weaker than the Lie--Poisson one.

We show that several families of asymptotically rigid mapping class groups arise as explicit quotients of the fundamental group of a graph of groups, with mapping class groups as vertex and edge stabilizers. Using this description, and…

For any finite abelian group G, we study the moduli space of abelian $G$-covers of elliptic curves, in particular identifying the irreducible components of the moduli space. We prove that, in the totally ramified case, the moduli space has…

We consider compact connected six dimensional symplectic manifolds with Hamiltonian SU(2) or SO(3) actions with cyclic principal stabilizers. We classify such manifolds up to equivariant symplectomorphisms.

We define relative Gromov-Witten invariants of a symplectic manifold relative to a codimension two symplectic submanifold. These invariants are the key ingredients in the symplectic sum formula of [IP4]. The main step is the construction of…

We compute the Clifford index of all curves on a K3 surface with Picard group isomorphic to U(m).
