We initiate the study of the rational SFT capacities of Siegel using tools in toric algebraic geometry. In particular, we derive new (often sharp) bounds for the RSFT capacities of a strongly convex toric domain in dimension $4$. These…
Define a "Liouville domain" to be a compact exact symplectic manifold with contact-type boundary. We use embedded contact homology to assign to each four-dimensional Liouville domain (or subset thereof) a sequence of real numbers, which we…
In this paper, we construct a sequence $(c_k)_{k\in\mathbb{N}}$ of symplectic capacities based on the Chiu-Tamarkin complex $C_{T,\ell}$, a $\mathbb{Z}/\ell$-equivariant invariant coming from the microlocal theory of sheaves. We compute…
Inspired by the work of G. Lu on pseudo symplectic capacities we obtain several results on the Gromov width and the Hofer--Zehnder capacity of Hermitian symmetric spaces of compact type. Our results and proofs extend those obtained by Lu…
We derive new estimates for the Gromov width of certain domains in C^2.
In this work we discuss a conjecture of Viterbo relating the symplectic capacity of a convex body and its volume. The conjecture states that among all 2n-dimensional convex bodies with a given volume the euclidean ball has maximal…
ECH capacities were developed by Hutchings to study embedding problems for symplectic $4$-manifolds with boundary. They have found especial success in the case of certain toric symplectic manifolds where many of the computations resemble…
We provide a lower bound for the embedding capacity of higher-dimensional symplectic ellipsoids, formulated in terms of the Lagrangian capacity of ellipsoids. Our approach relies on examining the Borman--Sheridan class of a Weinstein…
A theorem of Delzant states that any symplectic manifold $(M,\om)$ of dimension $2n$, equipped with an effective Hamiltonian action of the standard $n$-torus $\T^n = \R^{n}/2\pi\Z^n$, is a smooth projective toric variety completely…
In this note we consider two topics involving the relationship between the symplectic capacity and the mean width of convex bodies in $\mathbb{R}^{2n}$. We first describe an alternative path from the symplectic Brunn-Minkowski inequality of…
We introduce a new normalization condition for symplectic capacities, which we call cube normalization. This condition is satisfied by the Lagrangian capacity and the cube capacity. Our main result is an analogue of the strong Viterbo…
We prove that the cylindrical capacity of a dynamically convex domain in $\mathbb{R}^4$ agrees with the least symplectic area of a disk-like global surface of section of the Reeb flow on the boundary of the domain. Moreover, we prove the…
Let $\Sigma$ be a compact convex hypersurface in ${\bf R}^{2n}$ which is P-cyclic symmetric, i.e., $x\in \Sigma$ implies $Px\in\Sigma$ with P being a $2n\times2n$ symplectic orthogonal matrix and $P^k=I_{2n}$, where $n, k\geq2$,…
We study the relationship between a homological capacity $c_{\mathrm{SH}^+}(W)$ for Liouville domains $W$ defined using positive symplectic homology and the existence of periodic orbits for Hamiltonian systems on $W$: If the positive…
Motivated by Pazit Haim-Kislev's combinatorial formula for the Ekeland-Hofer-Zehnder capacities of convex polytopes, we give corresponding formulas for $\Psi$-Ekeland-Hofer-Zehnder and coisotropic Ekeland-Hofer-Zehnder capacities of convex…
In this paper, we firstly generalize some theories developed by I. Ekeland and H. Hofer in [EkH] for closed characteristics on compact convex hypersurfaces in ${\bf R}^{2n}$ to star-shaped hypersurfaces. As applications, we use…
We present a counterexample to Viterbo's volume-capacity conjecture. This implies, in particular, that in contrast with a well-known conjecture, symplectic capacities do not coincide on the class of convex domains in the classical phase…
We define a capacity which measures the size of Weinstein tubular neighbourhoods of Lagrangian submanifolds. In symplectic vector spaces this leads to bounds on the codisc radius for any closed Lagrangian submanifold in terms of Viterbo's…
We investigate the convexity up to symplectomorphism (called symplectic convexity) of star-shaped toric domains in $\mathbb R^4$. In particular, based on the criterion from Chaidez-Edtmair via Ruelle invariant and systolic ratio of the…
Let $V$ be a bounded domain with smooth boundary in $\R^n$, and $D^*V$ denote its disc cotangent bundle. We compute symplectic homology of $D^*V$, in terms of relative homology of loop spaces on the closure of $V$. We use this result to…
