A topological condition is given, characterizing which closed manifolds in dimensions < 8 (and conjecturally in general) admit symplectic structures. The condition is the existence of a certain fibration-like structure called a hyperpencil.…
In this work we prove a Brunn-Minkowski-type inequality in the context of symplectic geometry and discuss some of its applications.
We establish the elliptic blowup equations for E-strings and M-strings and solve elliptic genera and refined BPS invariants from them. Such elliptic blowup equations can be derived from a path integral interpretation. We provide toric…
We prove that if a symplectic 4-manifold $X$ becomes a rational 4-manifold after applying rational blow-down surgery, then the symplectic 4-manifold $X$ is originally rational. That is, a symplectic rational blow-up of a rational symplectic…
We introduce a symplectic surgery in six dimensions which collapses Lagrangian three-spheres and replaces them by symplectic two-spheres. Under mirror symmetry it corresponds to an operation on complex 3-folds studied by Clemens, Friedman…
We consider the phenomenon of forced symmetry breaking in a symmetric Hamiltonian system on a symplectic manifold. In particular we study the persistence of an initial relative equilibrium subjected to this forced symmetry breaking. We see…
This work contains a brief and elementary exposition of the foundations of Poisson and symplectic geometries, with an emphasis on applications for Hamiltonian systems with second-class constraints. In particular, we clarify the geometric…
This paper can be considered as an extension to our paper [On symplectically harmonic forms on six-dimensional nilmanifolds, Comment. Math. Helv. 76 (2001), n 1, 89-109]. Also, it contains a brief survey of recent results on symplectically…
We consider six-dimensional heavenly equation as a reduction in the framework of general six-dimensional linearly degenerate dispersionless hierarchy. We characterise the reduction in terms of wave functions, introduce generating relation,…
This article details a construction of symplectic foliations on 3-dimensional orientable riemannian manifolds from harmonic forms; and how it suggests a topological approach to Poisson's equation and newtonian gravity.
In this paper, we give a small data blow-up result for the one-dimensional semilinear wave equation with damping depending on time and space variables. We show that if the damping term can be regarded as perturbation, that is, non-effective…
A geometric mechanism that may, in analogy to similar notions in physics, be considered as "symmetry breaking" in geometry is described, and several instances of this mechanism in differential geometry are discussed: it is shown how…
We study the blow-up asymptotics of radially decreasing solutions of the parabolic-elliptic Keller-Segel-Patlak system in space dimensions $n\ge 3$. In view of the biological background of this system and of its mass conservation property,…
In this paper, we shall prove a blow-up criteria in terms of the upper bound of the density, deformation tensor and the gradient of deformation tensor for 3D compressible visco-elasticity. Based on the structure of deformation tensor, we…
We study the symmetry breaking phenomenon for an elliptic equation involving the fractional Laplacian in a large ball. Our main tool is an extension of the Strauss radial lemma involving the fractional Laplacian, which might be of…
The finitistic dimension conjecture is closely connected to the symmetry of the finitistic dimension. Recent work indicates that such connection extends to one of its upper bounds, the delooping level. In this paper, we show that the same…
Let $k$ be a field of characteristic not 2 or 3. Let $V$ be the $k$-space of binary cubic polynomials. The natural symplectic structure on $k^2$ promotes to a symplectic structure $\omega$ on $V$ and from the natural symplectic action of…
Intuitively, slow droplets stick to a surface and faster droplets splash or bounce. However, recent work suggests that on non-wetting surfaces, whether microdroplets stick or bounce depends only on their size and fluid properties, but not…
To find all two-dimensional equivariant symplectic submanifolds in symplectic toric manifolds, we combine the convex geometry of Delzant polytopes with local equivariant symplectic models and obtain a criterion for determining when a…
The phenomenon of finite time blow-up in hydrodynamic partial differential equations is central in analysis and mathematical physics. While numerical studies have guided theoretical breakthroughs, it is challenging to determine if the…
