The space of symplectic connections on a symplectic manifold is a symplectic affine space. M. Cahen and S. Gutt showed that the action of the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms on this space is Hamiltonian and calculated the moment map.…
We consider the complement to an arrangement of hyperplanes in a cartesian power of an elliptic curve and describe its cohomology with coefficients in a nontrivial rank one local system.
We state a conjecture about the volume of symplectically self-polar convex bodies and show that it is equivalent to Mahler's conjecture concerning the volume of a convex body and its Euclidean polar. We also establish lower and upper bounds…
We use Floer homology to study the Hofer-Zehnder capacity of neighborhoods near a closed symplectic submanifold M of a geometrically bounded and symplectically aspherical ambient manifold. We prove that, when the unit normal bundle of M is…
We introduce the volume entropy semi-norm in real homology and show that it satisfies functorial properties similar to the ones of the simplicial volume. Answering a question of M. Gromov, we prove that the volume entropy semi-norm is…
The ground energy level of an oscillator cannot be zero because of Heisenberg's uncertainty principle. We use methods from symplectic topology (Gromov's non-squeezing theorem, and the existence of symplectic capacities) to analyze and…
In this paper, we prove that the Ekeland-Hofer capacities coincide on all star-shaped domain in $\mathbb{R}^{2n}$ with the equivariant symplectic homology capacities defined by the first author and Hutchings, answering a 35 years old…
A complete embedding is a symplectic embedding $\iota:Y\to M$ of a geometrically bounded symplectic manifold $Y$ into another geometrically bounded symplectic manifold $M$ of the same dimension. When $Y$ satisfies an additional finiteness…
In this paper we first show that the necessary condition introduced in our previous paper is also a sufficient condition for a path to be a geodesic in the group $\Ham^c(M)$ of compactly supported Hamiltonian symplectomorphisms. This…
In this paper, we develop the theory of relative log convergent cohomology. We prove the coherence of relative log convergent cohomology in certain case by using the comparison theorem between relative log convergent cohomlogy and relative…
The concept of the capacity of a compact set in $\mathbb R^n$ generalizes readily to noncompact Riemannian manifolds and, with more substantial work, to metric spaces (where multiple natural definitions of capacity are possible). Motivated…
Conformally symplectic diffeomorphisms $f:M \rightarrow M$ transform a symplectic form $\omega$ on a manifold M into a multiple of itself, $f^* \omega = \eta \omega$. We assume $\omega$ is bounded, as some of the results may fail otherwise.…
In this note we establish a representation property for a certain Hamiltonian capacity on $\R^{2n}$ with the standard symplectic structure. We demonstrate that the value of this capacity on an open set with a contact type boundary is an…
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.
Let $\Omega$ be an open set in a metric measure space $X$. Our main result gives an equivalence between the validity of a weighted Hardy-Sobolev inequality in $\Omega$ and quasiadditivity of a weighted capacity with respect to Whitney…
D. Ruelle considered a general setting where he is able to characterize equilibrium states for H\"older potentials based on properties of conjugating homeomorphism in the so called Smale spaces. On this setting he also shows a relation of…
We present three equivalent definitions of $S^1$-equivariant symplectic homology. We show that, using rational coefficients, the positive part of $S^1$-equivariant symplectic homology is isomorphic to linearized contact homology, when the…
In this remark we discuss a relationship between (co)homology classes of a symplectic manifold realized by symplectic and lagrangian objects. We establish some transversality condition for the classes, realized by symplectic divisors and…
We prove an equivalent condition for the existence of a link between prime ideals in terms of the structure of a certain cohomology module. We use this formulation to answer an open question regarding the nature of module extensions over…
A modified version of the bilocal particle is presented in terms of complex space time. Unusual constraint structure of the model is studied, and a new concept of the physical equivalence is proposed in accordance with Dirac's conjecture.…
