We provide a counterexample to the Lagrangian Poincar\'e recurrence conjecture of Ginzburg and Viterbo in all dimensions $6$ and greater.
It is a long-standing conjecture that all symplectic capacities which are equal to the Gromov width for ellipsoids coincide on a class of convex domains in $\mathbb{R}^{2n}$. It is known that they coincide for monotone toric domains in all…
In this paper we settle three basic questions concerning the Gutt-Hutchings capacities. Our primary result settles a version of the recognition question in the negative. We prove that the Gutt-Hutchings capacities together with the volume,…
We construct an open bounded star-shaped set in R^4 whose cylindrical capacity is strictly bigger than its proper displacement energy.
We study holomorphic spheres in certain symplectic cobordisms and derive information about periodic Reeb orbits in the concave end of these cobordisms from the non-compactness of the relevant moduli spaces. We use this to confirm the strong…
In this paper, we construct an $S^1$-equivariant version of the relative symplectic cohomology developed by Varolgunes. As an application, we construct a relative version of Gutt-Hutchings capacities and a relative version of symplectic…
In this note, we estimate the upper bound of volume of closed positively or nonnegatively curved Alexandrov space $X$ with strictly convex boundary. We also discuss the equality case. In particular, the Boundary Conjecture holds when the…
We use explicit pseudoholomorphic curve techniques (without virtual perturbations) to define a sequence of symplectic capacities analogous to those defined recently by the second named author using symplectic field theory. We then compute…
Motivated by Schoen's conjecture on the volume functional for closed hyperbolic manifolds, we generalize the volume comparison theorem of Hu, Ji, and Shi and establish a volume comparison theorem for rank 1 symmetric spaces of non-compact…
We use the generalized Minkowski billiard characterization of the EHZ-capacity of Lagrangian products in order to reprove that the $4$-dimensional Viterbo conjecture holds for the Lagrangian products (any triangle/parallelogram in…
The capacity of classical channels is convex. This is not the case for the quantum capacity of a channel: the capacity of a mixture of different quantum channels exceeds the mixture of the individual capacities and thus is non-convex. Here…
In symplectic geometry, symplectic invariants are useful tools in studying symplectic phenomena. Hofer-Zehnder capacity and displacement energy are important symplectic invariants. Usher proved the so-called sharp energy-capacity inequality…
In this work we bring together tools and ideology from two different fields, Symplectic Geometry and Asymptotic Geometric Analysis, to arrive at some new results. Our main result is a dimension-independent bound for the symplectic capacity…
In this paper we prove a mass-capacity inequality and a volumetric Penrose inequality for conformally flat manifolds, in arbitrary dimensions. As a by-product of the proofs, P\'olya-Szeg\"o and Aleksandrov-Fenchel inequalities for…
The concept of convex compactness, weaker than the classical notion of compactness, is introduced and discussed. It is shown that a large class of convex subsets of topological vector spaces shares this property and that is can be used in…

In this brief note, we provide an example of non complete locally convex space $E$ with a $\sigma(E, E^*)$ closed bounded subset $C\subset E$, which is not $\sigma(E, E^*)$-compact, even if every $\varphi\in E^*$ attains its sup over $C$.
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 use symplectic techniques to obtain partial results on Mahler's conjecture about the product of the volume of a convex body and the volume of its polar. We confirm the conjecture for hyperplane sections or projections of $\ell_p$-balls…
A theorem of Gutt-Hutchings-Ramos asserts that all normalized symplectic capacities give the same value for monotone four-dimensional toric domains. We generalize this theorem to arbitrary dimension. The new ingredient in our proof is the…
