We provide a broad class of counterexamples to a conjecture of L. de Branges concerning the superfluity of the continuity property in the axiomatic description of de Branges spaces.

In this paper we give concrete estimations for the pseudo symplectic capacities of toric manifolds in combinatorial data. Some examples are given to show that our estimates can compute their pseudo symplectic capacities. As applications we…

In this paper, we first introduce the concept of symmetrical symplectic capacity for symmetrical symplectic manifolds, and by using this symmetrical symplectic capacity theory we prove that there exists at least one symmetric closed…

We prove an analogue of the 4-dimensional local Viterbo conjecture for the higher Ekeland-Hofer capacities: on the space of 4-dimensional smooth star-shaped domains of unitary volume, endowed with the $C^3$ topology, the local maximizers of…

Cox's well-known theorem justifying the use of probability is shown not to hold in finite domains. The counterexample also suggests that Cox's assumptions are insufficient to prove the result even in infinite domains. The same…

In this paper we establish new restrictions on symplectic embeddings of certain convex domains into symplectic vector spaces. These restrictions are stronger than those implied by the Ekeland-Hofer capacities. By refining an embedding…

We prove that, for any theory defined over a space-time with boundary, the symplectic form derived in the covariant phase space is equivalent to the one derived from the canonical formalism.

In this paper we construct analogues of Ekeland-Hofer and Hofer-Zehnder symplectic capacities based on a class of Hamiltonian boundary value problems motivated by Clarke's and Ekeland's work, and study generalizations of some important…

We show here that the $\Lambda$ and V configurations of three-level atomic systems, while they have recently been shown to be equivalent for many important physical quantities when driven with classical fields [M. B. Plenio, Phys. Rev. A…

A `quantum inequality' (a conjectured relation between the energy density of a free quantum field and the time during which this density is observed) has recently been used to rule out some of the macroscopic wormholes and warp drives. I…

The article treats some questions around Gromov's filling area conjecture. It intended to show that any filling with volume $< 2 \pi$ would not be attained and to show a local systolic inequality, implying an a priori lower estimate on the…

We give the first concrete examples of symplectic capacities that are not target-representable. This provides some answers to a question by Cieliebak, Hofer, Latschev, and Schlenk.

We establish the second part of Milnor's conjecture on the volume of simplexes in hyperbolic and spherical spaces. A characterization of the closure of the space of the angle Gram matrices of simplexes is also obtained.

We show that the hyperplane conjecture holds for the classes of $k$-intersection bodies with arbitrary measures in place of volume.

We use the minimal coupling procedure of Sternberg and Weinstein and our pseudo-symplectic capacity theory to prove that every closed symplectic submanifold in any symplectic manifold has an open neighborhood with finite ($\pi_1$-sensitive)…

For any nonempty, compact and fiberwise convex set $K$ in $T^*\mathbb{R}^n$, we prove an isomorphism between symplectic homology of $K$ and a certain relative homology of loop spaces of $\mathbb{R}^n$. We also prove a formula which computes…

We present a counterexample to Conjecture~14.1.6 from [Vladimir Kanovei, Borel equivalence relations], regarding Borel equivalence relations on product spaces.

In this note we analyze normalized symplectic capacities for two different notions of duality in Lagrangian products. Let $\Phi$ be a $n$-tuple of Young functions with Legendre transform $n$-tuple $\Phi^*$ and $K_{\Phi}$ the unit ball for…

We construct an elementary counterexample to the criterion for Kobayashi hyperbolicity for a class of tube domains in ${\mathbb C}^2$ proposed by J.-J. Loeb.
