Let X be a holomorphic symplectic manifold, of dimension divisible by 4, and s an antisymplectic involution of X . The fixed locus F of s is a Lagrangian submanifold of X ; we show that its \^A-genus is 1. As an application, we determine…

Numerical Campedelli surfaces are minimal surfaces of general type with p_g=0 (and so q=0) and K^2=2. Although they have been studied by several authors, their complete classification is not known. In this paper we classify numerical…

We present an algorithm for the computation of the topological type of a real compact Riemann surface associated to an algebraic curve, i.e., its genus and the properties of the set of fixed points of the anti-holomorphic involution $\tau$,…

This work builds on an existing model of discrete canonical evolution and applies it to the general case of a linear dynamical system, i.e., a finite-dimensional system with configuration space isomorphic to $ \mathbb{R}^{q} $ and linear…

The purpose of this article is to characterize symplectic and Hamiltonian circle actions on symplectic manifolds in terms of symplectic embeddings of Riemann surfaces. More precisely, we will show that (1) if $(M,\omega)$ admits a…

In this paper we study the sp(2m)-invariant Dirac operator Ds which acts on symplectic spinors, from an orthogonal point of view. By this we mean that we will focus on the subalgebra so(m), as this will allow us to derive branching rules…

We explicitly compute the semi-global symplectic invariants near the focus-focus point of the spherical pendulum. A modified Birkhoff normal form procedure is presented to compute the expansion of the Hamiltonian near the unstable…

We show that in characteristic 2, the Steinberg representation of the symplectic group Sp(2n,q), q a power of an odd prime p, has two irreducible constituents lying just above the socle that are isomorphic to the two Weil modules of degree…

We study the symplectic geometry of the SU(2)-representation variety of the compact oriented surface of genus 2. We use the Goldman flows to identify subsets of the moduli space with corresponding subsets of $\mathbb P^3(\mathbb C)$. We…

A first characterization of the isomorphism classes of $k$-involutions for any reductive algebraic groups defined over a perfect field was given by Helminck in 2000 using $3$ invariants. In 2004, Helminck, Wu, and Dometrius gave a full…

Let $\Sigma_{g,n}$ be a compact oriented surface with genus $g\geq 2$ bordered by $n$ circles. Due to Witten, the twisted Reidemeister torsion coincides with a power of the Atiyah-Bott-Goldman-Narasimhan symplectic form on the space of…

Roughly speaking, $\mathbb{Z}_2^n$-manifolds are `manifolds' equipped with $\mathbb{Z}_2^n$-graded commutative coordinates with the sign rule being determined by the scalar product of their $\mathbb{Z}_2^n$-degrees. We examine the notion of…
