This is a collection of open problems from workshop "Differential Geometry, Billiards, and Geometric Optics" at CIRM on October 4-8, 2021.
A list of open problems on holomorphic symplectic, contact and Poisson manifolds.
This is a set of expository lecture notes created originally for a graduate course on holomorphic curves taught at ETH Zurich and the Humboldt University Berlin in 2009/2010. The notes are still incomplete, but due to recent requests from…
These are lecture notes from my talks at the "Current Developments in Mathematics" conference (Harvard, 2006). They cover a variety of topics involving symplectic cohomology. In particular, a discussion of (algorithmic) classification…
This is an updated and expanded version of our earlier survey article \cite{Gut5}. Section $\S 1$ introduces the subject matter. Sections $\S 2 - \S 4$ expose the basic material following the paradigm of elliptic, hyperbolic and parabolic…
In May 2015, a conference entitled "Groups, Geometry, and 3-manifolds" was held at the University of California, Berkeley. The organizers asked participants to suggest problems and open questions, related in some way to the subject of the…
Open problems in information geometry are collected and discussed in the conference ``Further Developments of Information Geometry (FDIG) 2025'' held at the University of Tokyo, Japan, from March 18 to 21, 2025.
This report records a large number of open problems in Affine Algebraic Geometry that were proposed by participants in a Conference on Open Algebraic Varieties at the Centre de Recherches en Mathematiques in Montreal at December 1994.
This note is an expansion of three lectures given at the workshop "Topology, Complex Analysis and Arithmetic of Hyperbolic Spaces" held at Kyoto University in December of 2006 and will appear in the proceedings for this workshop.
This is a renovated list of open problems, to appear in: "Affine Algebraic Geometry" conference Proceedings volume in Contemporary Mathematics series of the Amer. Math. Soc. Ed. by Jaime Gutierrez, Vladimir Shpilrain, and Jie-Tai Yu.
In this paper I will unite two games, symplectic billiards and tiling billiards. The new game is called symplectic tiling billiards. I will prove a result about periodic orbits of symplectic tiling billiards in a very special case and then…
In this article we introduce a simple dynamical system called symplectic billiards. As opposed to usual/Birkhoff billiards, where length is the generating function, for symplectic billiards symplectic area is the generating function. We…
We consider algebraic geometrical properties of the integrable billiard on a quadric Q with elastic impacts along another quadric confocal to Q. These properties are in sharp contrast with those of the ellipsoidal Birkhoff billiards.…
These are notes to accompany my lectures at the $2024$ "Current Developments in Mathematics" conference hosted by Harvard/MIT. The lectures were about some recent progress in our understanding of two and three dimensional dynamical systems,…
We present a link between billiards in convex plane domains and Hofer's geometry, an area of symplectic topology. For smooth strictly convex billiard tables, we prove that the Hofer distance between the corresponding billiard ball maps…
Algebraic statistics is concerned with the study of probabilistic models and techniques for statistical inference using methods from algebra and geometry. This article presents a list of open mathematical problems in this emerging field,…
These lecture notes are based on an introductory course given by the author at the summer school "Noncommutative Algebraic Geometry" at MSRI in June 2012. The emphasis throughout is on examples to illustrate the many different facets of…
This paper collects open problems that were presented at the ``Hausdorff Geometry of Polynomials" workshop held on July 10-14, 2023 in Sofia, Bulgaria.
