A symplectic semitoric manifold is a symplectic $4$-manifold endowed with a Hamiltonian $(S^1 \times \mathbb{R})$-action satisfying certain conditions. The goal of this paper is to construct a new symplectic invariant of symplectic…

Let $M$ be a compact symplectic manifold on which a compact torus $T$ acts Hamiltonialy with a moment map $\mu$. Suppose there exists a symplectic involution $\theta:M\to M$, such that $\mu\circ\theta=-\mu$. Assuming that 0 is a regular…

Let $M$ be a compact, connected symplectic manifold with a Hamiltonian action of a compact $n$-dimensional torus $T$. Suppose that $M$ is equipped with an anti-symplectic involution $\sigma$ compatible with the $T$-action. The real locus of…
Gromov-Witten invariants of a symplectic manifold are a count of holomorphic curves. We describe a formula expressing the GW invariants of a symplectic sum $X# Y$ in terms of the relative GW invariants of $X$ and $Y$. This formula has…
The not-quite-Hamiltonian theory of singular reduction and reconstruction is described. This includes the notions of both regular and collective Hamiltonian reduction and reconstruction.
Numerous problems in optics, quantum physics, stability analysis, and control of dynamical systems can be brought to an optimization problem with matrix variable subjected to the symplecticity constraint. As this constraint nicely forms a…
We present an approach to Gromov-Witten invariants that works on arbitrary (closed) symplectic manifolds. We avoid genericity arguments and take into account singular curves in the very formulation. The method is by first endowing mapping…
We prove a reduction theorem for the tangent bundle of a Poisson manifold $(M, \pi)$ endowed with a pre-Hamiltonian action of a Poisson Lie group $(G, \pi_G)$. In the special case of a Hamiltonian action of a Lie group, we are able to…
Coadjoint orbits for the group SO(6) parametrize Riemannian G-reductions in six dimensions, and we use this correspondence to interpret symplectic fibrations between these orbits, and to analyse moment polytopes associated to the standard…
Inspired by the log Gromov-Witten (or GW) theory of Gross-Siebert/Abramovich-Chen, we introduce a geometric notion of log J-holomorphic curve relative to a simple normal crossings symplectic divisor defined in [FMZ1]. Every such moduli…

We study the ergodic properties of eigenfunctions of Schr\"odinger operators on a closed connected Riemannian manifold $M$ in case that the underlying Hamiltonian system possesses certain symmetries. More precisely, let $M$ carry an…
Symplectic slice theorems elucidate the local structure of symplectic manifolds carrying Hamiltonian actions of compact Lie groups. We generalize these theorems in two natural settings. The first is based on the idea that complex reductive…
We develop a set of sufficient conditions for guaranteeing that an integrable system with a symmetry group $K$ on a manifold $M$ descends to an integrable system on a dense open subset of the quotient Poisson space $M/K$. The higher…
