Let $X$ denote the `conifold smoothing', the symplectic Weinstein manifold which is the complement of a smooth conic in $T^*S^3$, or equivalently the plumbing of two copies of $T^*S^3$ along a Hopf link. Let $Y$ denote the `conifold…
In this paper we consider a geometric variant of Hofer's symplectic energy, which was first considered by Eliashberg and Hofer in connection with their study of the extent to which the interior of a region in a symplectic manifold…
As has been known since the time of Gromov's Nonsqueezing Theorem, symplectic embedding questions lie at the heart of symplectic geometry. After surveying some of the most important ways of measuring the size of a symplectic set, these…
In this article we consider integrable systems on manifolds endowed with singular symplectic structures of order one. These structures are symplectic away from an hypersurface where the symplectic volume goes either to infinity or to zero…
In this work, we show that, for any simply-connected elliptic space $S$ admitting a pure minimal Sullivan model with a differential of constant length, we have ${\rm TC}_0(S)\leq 2{\rm cat}_0(S)+\chi_{\pi}(S)$ where $\chi_{\pi}(S)$ is the…
We investigate lattice-counting problems associated with symplectic forms from the perspective of homogeneous dynamics. In the qualitative direction, we establish an analog of Margulis theorem for symplectic forms, proving density results…
We analyze various perspectives on the elliptic genus of non-compact supersymmetric coset conformal field theories with central charge larger than three. We calculate the holomorphic part of the elliptic genus via a free field description…
In the present paper we study two sequences of real numbers associated to a symplectic diffeomorphism: the uniform norm of the differential of its n-th iteration and the word length of its n-th iteration. In the latter case we assume that…
We investigate a one-parameter family of Coulomb gases in two dimensions, which are confined to an ellipse, due to a hard wall constraint, and are subject to an additional external potential. At inverse temperature $\beta=2$ we can use the…
We study when a piecewise full group (a.k.a. topological full group) of homeomorphisms of the Cantor space $X$ can be given a non-discrete totally disconnected locally compact (t.d.l.c.) topology and give a criterion for the alternating…
A minimal presentation of the cohomology ring of the flag manifold $GL_n/B$ was given in [A. Borel, 1953]. This presentation was extended by [E. Akyildiz-A. Lascoux-P. Pragacz, 1992] to a non-minimal one for all Schubert varieties. Work of…
ECH capacities are rich obstructions to symplectic embeddings in 4-dimensions that have also been seen to arise in the context of algebraic positivity for (possibly singular) projective surfaces. We extend this connection to relate general…
We state a conjecture about the volume of symplectically self-polar convex bodies and show that it is equivalent to Mahler's conjecture concerning the volume of a convex body and its Euclidean polar. We also establish lower and upper bounds…
Gravitationally collapsed objects are known to be biased tracers of an underlying density contrast. Using symmetry arguments, generalised biasing schemes have recently been developed to relate the halo density contrast $\delta_h$ with the…
The input to the \emph{sets-$k$-means} problem is an integer $k\geq 1$ and a set $\mathcal{P}=\{P_1,\cdots,P_n\}$ of sets in $\mathbb{R}^d$. The goal is to compute a set $C$ of $k$ centers (points) in $\mathbb{R}^d$ that minimizes the sum…
We investigate the $\mathcal F$-Borel complexity of topological spaces in their different compactifcations. We provide a simple proof of the fact that a space can have arbitrarily many different complexities in different compactifications.…
We study Hilbert generated versions of nonseparable Banach spaces $\mathcal X$ considered by Shelah, Stepr\=ans and Wark where the behavior of the norm on nonseparable subsets is so irregular that it does not allow any linear bounded…
A toric domain is a subset of $(\mathbb{C}^n,\omega_{\text{std}})$ which is invariant under the standard rotation action of $\mathbb{T}^n$ on $\mathbb{C}^n$. For a toric domain $U$ from a certain large class for which this action is not…
We prove that the rank (that is, the minimal size of a generating set) of lattices in a general connected Lie group is bounded by the co-volume of the projection of the lattice to the semi-simple part of the group. This was proved by…
We re-examine some topics in representation theory of Lie algebras and Springer theory in a more general context, viewing the universal enveloping algebra as an example of the section ring of a quantization of a conical symplectic…
