We introduce the notion of a local torus action modeled on the standard representation (for simplicity, we call it a local torus action). It is a generalization of a locally standard torus action and also an underlying structure of a…

We consider symplectic manifolds with Hamiltonian torus actions which are "almost but not quite completely integrable": the dimension of the torus is one less than half the dimension of the manifold. We provide a complete set of invariants…

For an endomorphism $s:V\rightarrow V$ of a finite dimensional complex vector space and an action of a torus $T$ on the full flag variety $\text{GL}_n({\mathbb C})/B$, we give a description of its fixed point set when $s$ is semisimple or…

Let X be a normal affine T-variety of complexity at most one over a perfect field k, where T stands for the split algebraic torus. Our main result is a classification of additive group actions on X that are normalized by the T-action. This…

Let the circle group act on a compact oriented manifold $M$ with a non-empty discrete fixed point set. Then the dimension of $M$ is even. If $M$ has one fixed point, $M$ is the point. In any even dimension, such a manifold $M$ with two…

Quasitoric manifolds are manifolds that admit an action of the torus that is locally as the standard action of T^n on C^n. It is known that the quotients of such actions are nice manifolds with corners. We prove that such manifolds are…

We consider rotations on the torus $\mathbb{T}^2$, and we classify them with respect to the complexity functions. In dimension one, a minimal rotation can be coded by a sturmian word. A sturmian word has complexity $n+1$ by the…

The rational Borel equivariant cohomology for actions of a compact connected Lie group is determined by restriction of the action to a maximal torus. We show that a similar reduction holds for any compact Lie group $G$ when there is a…

We consider the symplectic vortex equations for a linear Hamiltonian torus action. We show that the associated genus zero moduli space itself is homotopic (in the sense of a homotopy of regular G-moduli problems) to a toric manifold with…

In recent work of Kennard, Khalili Samani, and the last author, they generalize the Half-Maximal Symmetry Rank result of Wilking for torus actions on positively curved manifolds to $\mathbb{Z}_2$-tori with a fixed point. They show that if…

We classify $T^2$-GKM fibrations in which both fiber and base are the GKM graph of $S^4$, with standard weights in the base. For each case in which the total space is orientable, we construct, by explicit clutching, a realization as a…

In arXiv1312.7267, the first non-trivial example of a Poisson manifold of strong compact type is given. The construction uses the theory of K3 surfaces and results in a Poisson manifold with leaf space $S^1$. We modify the construction to…

This paper introduces a quaternionic analogue of toric geometry by developing the theory of local $Q^n := Sp(1)^n$-actions on 4n-dimensional manifolds, modeled on the regular representation. We identify obstructions that measure the failure…

We classify polar isometric actions on simply connected 3-dimensional Riemannian homogeneous spaces, up to orbit equivalence. In particular, we classify extrinsically homogeneous surfaces in such spaces and study the geometry of the orbit…

Let $M^{2d}$ be a compact symplectic manifold and $T$ a compact $n$-dimensional torus. A Hamiltonian action, $\tau$, of $T$ on $M$ is a GKM action if, for every $p \in M^T$, the isotropy representation of $T$ on $T_pM$ has pair-wise…

We introduce quaternionic structures on abstract GKM graphs, as the combinatorial counterpart of almost quaternionic structures left invariant by a torus action of GKM type. In the GKM$_3$ setting the 2-faces of the GKM graph can naturally…

For a compact CR manifold $(X,T^{1,0}X)$ of dimension $2n+1$, $n\geq 2$, admitting a $S^1\times T^d$ action, if the lattice point $(-p_1,\cdots,-p_d)\in\mathbb{Z}^{d}$ is a regular value of the associate CR moment map $\mu$, then we…

Let G be a torus of dimension n > 1 and M a compact Hamiltonian G-manifold with $M^G$ finite. A circle, $S^1$, in G is generic if $M^G = M^{S^1}$. For such a circle the moment map associated with its action on M is a perfect Morse function.…

We show that if $(X,g,J,\omega)$ is a K\"ahler manifold with an $SU(n+s)$-structure and a Hamiltonian holomorphic action of a compact torus $T^s$, then the usual symplectic quotient $Y$ inherits an $SU(n)$-structure provided the existence…

We study fixed points of smooth torus actions on closed manifolds using fixed point formulas and equivariant elliptic genera. We also give applications to positively curved Riemannian manifolds with symmetry.
