Suppose that a Lie group $G$ acts properly on a configuration manifold $Q$. We study the symplectic quotient of $T^*Q$ with respect to the cotangent lifted $G$-action at an arbitrary coadjoint orbit level $\mathcal{O}$. In particular, if…

In this paper, we introduce the notion of a pre-symplectic algebroid, and show that there is a one-to-one correspondence between pre-symplectic algebroids and symplectic Lie algebroids. This result is the geometric generalization of the…
A strict quantization of a compact symplectic manifold $S$ on a subset $I\subseteq\R$, containing 0 as an accumulation point, is defined as a continuous field of $C^*$-algebras $\{A_{\hbar}\}_{\hbar\in I}$, with $A_0=C_0(S)$, and a set of…
We prove a number of dualities between posets and (pseudo)bases of open sets in locally compact Hausdorff spaces. In particular, we show that (1) Relatively compact basic sublattices are finitely axiomatizable. (2) Relatively compact basic…

We show that a small neighborhood of a closed symplectic submanifold in a geometrically bounded aspherical symplectic manifold has non-vanishing symplectic homology. As a consequence, we establish the existence of contractible closed…
We prove that every automorphism of the restricted root system of a real semisimple Lie algebra -- when defined properly -- can be lifted to an automorphism of that Lie algebra. In particular, this can be applied to automorphisms of the…
Using a basic idea of Sullivan's rational homotopy theory, one can see a Lie groupoid as the fundamental groupoid of its Lie algebroid. This paper studies analogues of Lie algebroids with non-trivial higher homotopy. Using various homotopy…
