One can always decompose Dirichlet-Voronoi polytopes of lattices non-trivially into a Minkowski sum of Dirichlet-Voronoi polytopes of rigid lattices. In this report we show how one can enumerate all rigid positive semidefinite quadratic…

This paper is devoted to the resolution of singularities of holomorphic vector fields and of one-dimensional holomorphic foliations in dimension 3 and it has two main objectives. First, from the general perspective of one-dimensional…

We call a foliation $\mathcal{F}$ on a compact manifold infinitesimally rigid if its deformation cohomology $H^{1}(\mathcal{F},N\mathcal{F})$ vanishes. This paper studies infinitesimal rigidity for a distinguished class of Riemannian…

We prove that every strong symplectic filling of a planar contact manifold admits a symplectic Lefschetz fibration over the disk, and every strong filling of the 3-torus similarly admits a Lefschetz fibration over the annulus. It follows…

In this paper the Gromov-Witten invariants on a class of noncompact symplectic manifolds are defined by combining Ruan-Tian's method with that of McDuff-Salamon. The main point of the arguments is to introduce a method dealing with the…

We establish several Witten type rigidity and vanishing theorems for twisted Toeplitz operators on odd dimensional manifolds. We obtain our results by combining the modular method, modular transgression and some careful analysis of odd…

This is the second installment in a series of papers aimed at generalizing symplectic capacities and homologies. We study symmetric versions of symplectic capacities for real symplectic manifolds, and obtain corresponding results for them…

We show how one can define novel gauge-theoretic Floer homologies of four, three, and two-manifolds from the physics of a certain topologically-twisted 5d ${\cal N}=2$ gauge theory via its supersymmetric quantum mechanics interpretation.…

We develop new methods of both constructing and obstructing symplectic embeddings into non-toric rational surfaces using the theory of Newton-Okoukov bodies. Applications include sharp embedding results for concave toric domains into…

We find classes of projective manifolds that are elliptic in the sense of Gromov and such that the affine cones over these manifolds also are elliptic off their vertices. For example, the latter holds for any generalized flag manifold of…

We prove that symplectic homeomorphisms, in the sense of the celebrated Gromov-Eliashberg Theorem, preserve coisotropic submanifolds and their characteristic foliations. This result generalizes the Gromov-Eliashberg Theorem and demonstrates…

An orbit-like foliation is a singular foliation on a complete Riemannian manifold $M$ whose leaves are locally equidistant (i.e., a singular Riemannian foliation) and (transversely) infinitesimally homogenous. This class of singular…

We construct examples of symplectic half-flat manifolds on compact quotients of solvable Lie groups. We prove that the Calabi-Yau structures are not rigid in the class of symplectic half-flat structures. Moreover, we provide an example of a…

Extension of symplectic geometry on manifolds to the supersymmetric case is considered. In the even case it leads to the even symplectic geometry (or, equivalently, to the geometry on supermanifolds endowed with a non-degenerate Poisson…
