A natural explicit condition is given ensuring that an action of the multiplicative monoid of non-negative reals on a manifold F comes from homotheties of a vector bundle structure on F, or, equivalently, from an Euler vector field. This is…

This paper explores the orbit structure and homomesy (constant averages over orbits) properties of certain actions of toggle groups on the collection of independent sets of a path graph. In particular we prove a generalization of a homomesy…

In this paper we completely classify symplectic actions of a torus $T$ on a compact connected symplectic manifold $(M, \sigma)$ when some, hence every, principal orbit is a coisotropic submanifold of $(M, \sigma)$. That is, we construct an…

We develop a Hamiltonian theory for 2D soliton equations. In particular, we identify the spaces of doubly periodic operators on which a full hierarchy of commuting flows can be introduced, and show that these flows are Hamiltonian with…

Let $V$ be a $2n$-dimensional vector space over a field $F$ and $\Omega$ be a non-degenerate symplectic form on $V$. Denote by ${\mathfrak H}_{k}(\Omega)$ the set of all $2k$-dimensional subspaces $U\subset V$ such that the restriction…

In this paper we study differential forms and vector fields on the orbit space of a proper action of a Lie group on a smooth manifold, defining them as multilinear maps on the generators of infinitesimal diffeomorphisms, respectively. This…

We constructed a symplectic realization of the dynamic structure of two interacting spin-two fields in three dimensions. A significant simplification refers to the treatment of constraints: instead of performing a Hamiltonian analysis…

Let $\Omega$ be a non-singular syplectic form on some vector space $V$. Denote by $S^{n}_{k}(\Omega)$ the set of all $k$-dimensional planes $s$ in $V$ such that the restriction of $\Omega$ onto $s$ is singular. For the cases when $k=2,n-2$…

We prove that any symplectic resolution of the closure of a nilpotent orbit in a semi-simple complex Lie algebra is isomorphic to the collapsing of the cotangent bundle of a projective homogenous variety. Then we give a complete…

We give a proof of the fact that a simply-connected symplectic homogeneous space $(M,\omega)$ of a connected Lie group $G$ is the universal cover of a coadjoint orbit of a one-dimensional central extension of $G$. We emphasise the r\^ole of…

There is an important difference between Hamiltonian-like vector fields in an almost-symplectic manifold $(M,\sigma)$, compared to the standard case of a symplectic manifold: in the almost-symplectic case, a vector field such that the…

Finite-dimensional subalgebras of a Lie algebra of smooth vector fields on a circle, as well as piecewise-smooth global transformations of a circle on itself, are considered. A canonical forms of realizations of two- and three-dimensional…

The intention of this article is to illustrate the use of methods from symplectic geometry for practical purposes. Our intended audience is scientists interested in orbits of Hamiltonian systems (e.g. the three-body problem). The main…

We study the orbit structure and the geometric quantization of a pair of mutually commuting hamiltonian actions on a symplectic manifold. If the pair of actions fulfils a symplectic Howe condition, we show that there is a canonical…
