Let D be a relatively compact strongly pseudoconvex domain in a Stein manifold, and let Y be a complex manifold. We prove that the set A(D,Y), consisting of all continuous maps from the closure of D to Y which are holomorphic in D, is a…

In the paper a Riemannian structure on the tangent bundle is defined by using a statistical structure $(g,\nabla)$ on the base manifold. Expressions for various curvatures of the structure are derived. Some rigidity results of the structure…

We propose a novel approach to contact Hamiltonian mechanics which, in contrast to the one dominating in the literature, serves also for non-trivial contact structures. In this approach Hamiltonians are no longer functions on the contact…

We prove a contact non-squeezing result for a class of embeddings between starshaped domains in the contactization of the symplectization of the unit cotangent bundle of certain manifolds. The class of embeddings includes embeddings which…

We introduce the notion of generalised Gorenstein spin structure on a curve and we give an explicit description of the associated section ring for curves of genus two with ample canonical bundle, obtaining five different formats.

We prove that every closed characteristic of minimal action on the boundary of a uniformly convex domain in $\R^4$ bounds a disk-like global surface of section. A corollary is that the cylindrical symplectic capacity of a convex body in…

We develop the Gompf fiber connected sum operation for symplectic orbifolds. We use it to construct a symplectic 4-orbifold with $b_1=0$ and containing symplectic surfaces of genus 1 and 2 that are disjoint and span the rational homology.…

We construct a family version of symplectic Floer cohomology for magnetic cotangent bundles, without any restrictions on the magnetic form, using the dissipative method for compactness introduced in \cite{Groman2015}. As an application, we…

We prove that every continuous map from a Stein manifold X to a complex manifold Y can be made holomorphic by a homotopic deformation of both the map and the Stein structure on X. In the absence of topological obstructions the holomorphic…

By a result of Eliashberg, every symplectic filling of a three-dimensional contact connected sum is obtained by performing a boundary connected sum on another symplectic filling. We prove a partial generalization of this result for…

We show that, given a closed integral symplectic manifold $(\Sigma, \omega)$ of dimension $2n \geq 4$, for every integer $k>\int_{\Sigma}\omega^{n}$, the Boothby-Wang bundle over $(\Sigma, k\omega)$ carries no Stein fillable contact…

Tangent categories provide an axiomatic framework for understanding various tangent bundles and differential operations that occur in differential geometry, algebraic geometry, abstract homotopy theory, and computer science. Previous work…

The contact geometric structure of the thermodynamic phase space is used to introduce a novel symplectic structure on the tangent bundle of the equilibrium space. Moreover, it turns out that the equilibrium space can be interpreted as a…

In this article we completely describe the existence of canonical metrics, known as optimal symplectic connections, on isotrivial K\"ahler fibrations. In this setting an optimal symplectic connection is induced from a Hermite--Einstein…

For an elliptic surface $q:Y \to \Sigma$, with prescribed singular fibres, Stefan Bauer proved directly via algebraic geometry that the stable bundles over $Y$, whose chern classes are pull backs from $\Sigma$, correspond to the stable…

We introduce symplectic Calabi-Yau caps to obtain new obstructions to exact fillings. In particular, it implies that any exact filling of the standard unit cotangent bundle of a hyperbolic surface has vanishing first Chern class and has the…

In this article, we prove a generalization of a theorem of Lisca-Matic to Stein cobordisms and develop a method for distinguishing certain Stein cobordisms using rotation numbers. Using these results along with standard techniques from…

We explicitly construct a symplectomorphism that relates magnetic twists to the invariant hyperk\"ahler structure of the tangent bundle of a Hermitian symmetric space. This symplectomorphism reveals foliations by (pseudo-) holomorphic…

It is shown how $W$-algebras emerge from very peculiar canonical transformations with respect to the canonical symplectic structure on a compact Riemann surface. The action of smooth diffeomorphisms of the cotangent bundle on suitable…
