Consider a smooth effective action of a torus $\mathbb{T}^n$ on a connected $C^{\infty}$-manifold $M$ of dimension $m$. Then $n\leq m$. In this work we show that if $n<m$, then there exist a complete vector field $X$ on $M$ such that the…

We give a complete characterization of Hamiltonian actions of compact Lie groups on exact symplectic manifolds with proper momentum maps. We deduce that every Hamiltonian action of a compact Lie group on a contractible symplectic manifold…

In this work, it is shown that a simply-connected, rationally-elliptic torus orbifold is equivariantly rationally homotopy equivalent to the quotient of a product of spheres by an almost-free, linear torus action, where this torus has rank…

This paper gives methods for understanding invariants of symplectic quotients. The symplectic quotients considered here are compact symplectic manifolds (or more generally orbifolds), which arise as the symplectic quotients of a symplectic…

We classify infinitesimally polar actions on compact Riemannian symmetric spaces of rank one. We also prove that every polar action on one of those spaces has the same orbits as an asystatic action.

I study flux groups of compact symplectic manifolds. Under some topological assumptions, I give a new estimate of the rank of flux groups and give a method of construcion of compact symplectic aspherical manifolds.

We propose some problems on the classification of toric manifolds from the viewpoint of topology and survey related results.

We construct an equivariant version of Ray-Singer analytic torsion for proper, isometric actions by locally compact groups on Riemannian manifolds, with compact quotients. We obtain results on convergence, metric independence, vanishing for…

We study the geometry of manifolds carrying symplectic pairs consisting of two closed 2-forms of constant ranks, whose kernel foliations are complementary. Using a variation of the construction of Boothby and Wang we build…

We give a characterization of the compact operators on a model space in terms of asymptotic Toeplitz operators.

We consider aspherical manifolds with torsion-free virtually polycyclic fundamental groups, constructed by Baues. We prove that if those manifolds are cohomologically symplectic then they are symplectic. As a corollary we show that…

In this paper, we compute contact homology of some quasi-regular contact structures, which admit Hamiltonian actions of Reeb type of Lie groups. We will discuss the toric contact case, (where the torus is of Reeb type), and the case of…

The geometry of symmetric spaces, polar actions, isoparametric submanifolds and spherical buildings is governed by spherical Weyl groups and simple Lie groups. A natural generalization of semisimple Lie groups are affine Kac-Moody groups as…

We establish the leafwise intersection property for closed, coisotropic submanifolds in an exact symplectic manifold satisfying natural additional assumptions.

A real toric space is a topological space which admits a well-behaved $\mathbb{Z}_2^k$-action. Real moment-angle complexes and real toric varieties are typical examples of real toric spaces. A real toric space is determined by a pair of a…

In this article we review some recent developments in heterotic compactifications. In particular we review an ``inherently toric'' description of certain sheaves, called equivariant sheaves, that has recently been discussed in the physics…

We study isometric actions of compact Lie groups on complete orientable positively curved $n$-manifolds whose orbit spaces have non-empty boundary in the sense of Alexandrov geometry. In particular, we classify quotients of the unit sphere…

We analyze polar actions on Hermitian and quaternion-K\"ahler symmetric spaces of compact type. For complex integrable polar actions on Hermitian symmetric spaces of compact type we prove a reduction theorem and several corollaries…

The action of a torus group $T$ on a symplectic toric manifold $(M,\omega)$ often extends to an effective action of a (non-abelian) compact Lie group $G$. We may think of $T$ and $G$ as compact Lie subgroups of the symplectomorphism group…

The {\it torus manifolds} have been defined and studied by M. Masuda and T. Panov (arXiv:math.AT/0306100) who in particular describe its cohomology ring structure. In this note we shall describe the topological $K$-ring of a class of torus…
