Anti-selfdual Lagrangians on a state space lift to path space provided one adds a suitable selfdual boundary Lagrangian. This process can be iterated by considering the path space as a new state space for the newly obtained anti-selfdual…

In this paper we study generic M(atrix) theory compactifications that are specified by a set of quotient conditions. A procedure is proposed, which both associates an algebra to each compactification and leads deductively to general…

It is well-known that if a symplectic integrator is applied to a Hamiltonian system, then the modified equation, whose solutions interpolate the numerical solutions, is again Hamiltonian. We investigate this property from the variational…

We define an invariant $l(M,W,\omega)$ for Lagrangian submanifold and prove that if the Lagrangian submanifold is embedded in the ball of radius $r_0$, then $l(M,W,\Omega)$ must be smaller than $4\pi t_0^2$. This improves Gromov's…
