We use microlocal sheaf theory to show that if two knots have Legendrian isotopic conormal tori, then the knots are isotopic or mirror images.
The first author introduced a relative symplectic capacity $C$ for a symplectic manifold $(N,\omega_N)$ and its subset $X$ which measures the existence of non-contractible periodic trajectories of Hamiltonian isotopies on the product of $N$…
As shown by H. Gluck in 1962, the diffeotopy group of S^1 \times S^2 is isomorphic to Z_2 + Z_2 + Z_2. Here an alternative proof of this result is given, relying on contact topology. We then discuss two applications to contact topology: (i)…
We present a new and simpler proof of the fact that any Lagrangian $\mathbb{R}P^2$ in $T^*\mathbb{R}P^2$ is Hamiltonian isotopic to the zero section. Our proof mirrors the one given by Li and Wu for the Hamiltonian uniqueness of Lagrangians…
We give a constructive proof of the existence of lower dimensional elliptic tori in nearly integrable Hamiltonian systems. In particular we adapt the classical Kolmogorov's normalization algorithm to the case of planetary systems, for which…
In this paper, we construct the first families of distinct Lagrangian ribbon disks in the standard symplectic 4-ball which have the same boundary Legendrian knots, and are not smoothly isotopic or have non-homeomorphic exteriors.
We study the global-in-time dynamics for a stochastic semilinear wave equation with cubic defocusing nonlinearity and additive noise, posed on the $2$-dimensional torus. The noise is taken to be slightly more regular than space-time white…
This paper examines a general method for producing twists of a comodule algebra by tensoring it with a torsor then taking co-invariants. We examine the properties that pass from the original algebra to the twisted algebra and vice versa. We…
We prove that there exist infinitely many embedded tori with a common geometric dual in $T^4\#(S^2\times S^2)$ that are homotopic, diffeomorphic, but not isotopic to each other, even after arbitrary many external stabilizations. These…
We define an simple invariant of an embedded nullhomologous Lagrangian torus and use this invariant to show that many symplectic 4-manifolds have infinitely many pairwise symplectically inequivalent nullhomologous Lagrangian tori. We…
In 1956, Bott in his celebrated paper on closed geodesics and Sturm intersection theory, proved an Index Iteration Formula for closed geodesics on Riemannian manifolds. Some years later, Ekeland improved this formula in the case of convex…
Lyapunov functions are essential tools in dynamical systems, as they allow the stability analysis of equilibrium points without the need to explicitly solve the system's equations. Despite their importance, no systematic method exists for…
Given a Lagrangian submanifold $L$ in a symplectic manifold $X$, the homological Lagrangian monodromy group $\mathcal{H}_L$ describes how Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of $X$ preserving $L$ setwise act on $H_*(L)$. We begin a systematic study…
We prove a H\"older-type inequality for the Hausdorff distance between Lagrangians with respect to the Lagrangian spectral distance or the Hofer-Chekanov distance in the spirit of Joksimovi\'c-Seyfaddini [arXiv:2207.11813]. This inequality…
By a result due to Ziltener, there exist no closed embedded Bohr-Sommerfeld Lagrangians inside $\mathbb CP^n$ for the prequantisation bundle whose total space is the standard contact sphere. On the other hand, any embedded monotone…
We prove that there is an invariant torus with given Diophantine frequency vector for a class of Hamiltonian systems defined by an integrable large Hamiltonian function with a large non-autonomous Hamiltonian perturbation. As for…
The Melnikov method is applied to a class of generalized Ziegler pendulums. We find an analytical form for the separatrix of the system in terms of Jacobian elliptic integrals, holding for a large class of initial conditions and parameters.…
We prove that a regular elliptic isometry $f$ of complex hyperbolic space $\mathbf{H}_{\mathbb{C}}^2$ preserves a Lagrangian plane through its fixed point as a non-involution if and only if $f$ is real elliptic. In this case, the isometry…
The aim of this note is to present the recent results in [16] where we provide the existence of solutions of some nonlinear resonant PDEs on the 2-dimensional torus exchanging energy among Fourier modes in a \emph{chaotic-like} way. We say…
The fundamental group of $M = \sharp_n (S^2\times S^1)$ is $F_n$, the free group with $n$ generators. There is a 1-1 correspondence between the equivalence classes of $\mathbb{Z}$-- splittings of $F_n$ and homotopy classes of embedded…
