We completely solve the symplectic packing problem with equally sized balls for any rational, ruled, symplectic 4-manifolds. We give explicit formulae for the packing numbers, the generalized Gromov widths, the stability numbers, and the…

A finite volume symplectic manifold is said to have "packing stability" if the only obstruction to symplectically embedding sufficiently small balls is the volume obstruction. Packing stability has been shown in a variety of cases and it…

We show that many toric domains $X$ in $R^4$ admit symplectic embeddings $\phi$ into dilates of themselves which are knotted in the strong sense that there is no symplectomorphism of the target that takes $\phi(X)$ to $X$. For instance $X$…

In this work, we explore the implications of applying the formalism of symplectic geometry to quantum mechanics, particularly focusing on many-particle systems. We extend the concept of a symplectic indicator of entanglement, originally…

Let M be a closed symplectic manifold of volume V. We say that M admits an unobstructed symplectic packing by balls if any collection of symplectic balls (of possibly different radii) of total volume less than V admits a symplectic…

The ellipsoid embedding function of a symplectic four-manifold measures the amount by which its symplectic form must be scaled in order for it to admit an embedding of an ellipsoid of varying eccentricity. This function generalizes the…

We prove a pointwise ergodic theorem for quasi-probability-measure-preserving (quasi-pmp) locally countable measurable graphs, equivalently, Schreier graphs of quasi-pmp actions of countable groups. For ergodic graphs, the theorem gives an…

This paper is a contribution to piecewise linear (PL) symplectic topology. We define the notion of PL symplectic manifold as being a combinatorial manifold endowed with a piecewise constant Whitney symplectic form and investigate possible…

We develop a new method suitable for establishing lower bounds on the ball measure of noncompactness of operators acting between considerably general quasinormed function spaces. This new method removes some of the restrictions…

Given two four-dimensional symplectic manifolds, together with knots in their boundaries, we define an ``anchored symplectic embedding'' to be a symplectic embedding, together with a two-dimensional symplectic cobordism between the knots…

This is a survey about certain "almost homomorphisms" and "almost linear" functionals (called quasi-morphisms and quasi-states) in symplectic topology and their applications to Hamiltonian dynamics, functional-theoretic properties of…

In the case of a linear symplectic map A of the 2d-torus, semiclassical measures are A-invariant probability measures associated to sequences of high energy quantum states. Our main result is an explicit lower bound on the entropy of any…

We investigate some basic descriptive set theory for countably based completely quasi-metrizable topological spaces, which we refer to as quasi-Polish spaces. These spaces naturally generalize much of the classical descriptive set theory of…

In any dimension $2n \ge 6$ we show that certain spaces of symplectic embeddings of a polydisk into a product $B^4 \times \Bbb R^{2(n-2)}$ of a $4$-ball and Euclidean space, are not path connected. We also show that any pair of such…

In this article, we introduce a class of closed $2n$-dimensional almost K\"{a}hler manifold $X$ which called the special symplectic hyperbolic manifold. Those manifolds include K\"{a}hler hyperbolic manifolds. We study the spaces of…

In this semi-expository paper, we define certain Rawnsley-type coherent and squeezed states on an integral K\"ahler manifold (after possibly removing a set of measure zero) and show that they satisfy some properties which are akin to…

We compare two functionals defined on the space of continuous functions with compact support in an open neighborhood of the zero section of the cotangent bundle of a torus. One comes from Viterbo's symplectic homogenization while the other…

We obtain new sharp obstructions to symplectic embeddings of four-dimensional polydisks $P(a,1)$ into four-dimensional ellipsoids $E(bc,c)$ when $1\le a< 2$ and $b$ is a half-integer. When $1 \leq a < 2-O(b^{-1})$ we demonstrate that…

We construct a family of non-parametric (infinite-dimensional) manifolds of finite measures on $R^d$. The manifolds are modelled on a variety of weighted Sobolev spaces, including Hilbert-Sobolev spaces and mixed-norm spaces. Each supports…

It is common that a Sobolev space defined on $\mathbb{R}^m$ has a non-compact embedding into an $L^p$-space, but it has subspaces for which this embedding becomes compact. There are three well known cases of such subspaces, the Rellich…
