We define pointwise partial differential relations for holomorphic discs. Given a relative homotopy class, a relation, and a generic almost complex structure we provide the moduli space of discs which have an injective point with the…
We consider the Riemann moduli space $\mathcal M_{\gamma}$ of conformal structures on a compact surface of genus $\gamma>1$ together with its Weil-Petersson metric $g_{\mathrm{WP}}$. Our main result is that $g_{\mathrm{WP}}$ admits a…
Let $X$ be a compact connected Riemann surface and $D$ an effective divisor on $X$. Let ${\mathcal N}_H(r,d)$ denote the moduli space of $D$-twisted stable Higgs bundles (a special class of Hitchin pairs) on $X$ of rank $r$ and degree $d$.…

This paper deals with the problem of generalising Gromov's non squeezing theorem to an infinite dimensional Hilbert phase space setting. By following the lines of the proof by Hofer and Zehnder of finite dimensional non-squeezing, we…
We introduce the symplectic holomorphic density property and the Hamiltonian holomorphic density property together with the corresponding version of Anders\'en-Lempert theory. We establish these properties for the Calogero-Moser space…
We study the Disc-structure space $S^{\rm Disc}_\partial(M)$ of a compact smooth manifold $M$. Informally speaking, this space measures the difference between $M$, together with its diffeomorphisms, and the diagram of ordered framed…
We prove that any minimal (maximal) strongly regular surface in the three-dimensional Minkowski space locally admits canonical principal parameters. Using this result, we find a canonical representation of minimal strongly regular time-like…
For a compact set A in Euclidean space we consider the asymptotic behavior of optimal (and near optimal) N-point configurations that minimize the Riesz s-energy (corresponding to the potential 1/t^s) over all N-point subsets of A, where…
We present a view of the current understanding of the geometry of Weil-Petersson (WP) geodesics on the completion of the Teichm\"uller space. We sketch a collection of results by other authors and then proceed to develop the properties of…
Let $(G,K)$ be a Riemannian symmetric pair of maximal rank, where $G$ is a compact simply connected Lie group and $K$ the fixed point set of an involutive automorphism $\sigma$. This induces an involutive automorphism $\tau$ of the based…
Suppose $(X,\omega)$ is a compact K\"ahler manifold of dimension $n$, and $\theta$ is closed $(1,1)$-form representing a big cohomology class. We introduce a metric $d_1$ on the finite energy space $\mathcal{E}^1(X,\theta)$, making it a…
We introduce the space $\mathcal{W}^{s,p}(\mathbb{D})$ of analytic functions $u$ on the unit disc such that the radial restrictions $u_{r}(\xi):=u(r\xi)$ satisfy the Gagliardo seminorm-only bound \[…
We parametrise the gauge-invariant ideals of the Toeplitz-Nica-Pimsner algebra of a strong compactly aligned product system over $\mathbb{Z}_+^d$ by using $2^d$-tuples of ideals of the coefficient algebra that are invariant, partially…
The universal Teichm\"uller space is an infinitely dimensional generalization of the classical Teichm\"uller space of Riemann surfaces. It carries a natural Hilbert structure, on which one can define a natural Riemannian metric, the…
This article is based on a lecture by the first author at the International Georgia Topology Conference 2001 (Athens, Georgia) and the Mathematische Arbeitstagung 2001 (Bonn, Germany). We sketch a proof of Witten's formula relating the…
We introduce a natural cell decomposition of a closed oriented surface associated with a pants decomposition, and an explicit groupoid cocycle on the cell decomposition which represents each point of the Teichm\"uller space $\mathcal{T}_g$.…
We construct a symplectic isomorphism, h, from classical Klein Gordon solutions of mass m on (d+1)-dimensional Lorentzian Anti de Sitter space (equipped with the usual symplectic form) to a certain symplectic space of functions on its…
Given an open neighborhood $W$ of the zero section in the cotangent bundle of $N$ we define a distance-like function $\rho_W$ on $N$ using certain symplectic embeddings from the standard ball $B^{2n}(r)$ to $W$. We show that when $W$ is the…
We outline a proof that the stack of symplectic toric G-manifolds over a fixed orbit space W is a torsor for the stack of symplectic toric G-principal bundles over W.
