This article describes the use of symplectic cut-and-paste methods to compute Gromov-Witten invariants. Our focus is on recent advances extending these methods to Kahler surfaces with geometric genus p_g>0, for which the usual GW invariants…

We express total set of rational Gromov-Witten invariants of projective spaces via periods of variations of semi-infinite Hodge structure associated with their mirror partners.

Consider a Hamiltonian action of a compact Lie group on a symplectic manifold which has the strong Lefschetz property. We establish an equivariant version of the Merkulov-Guillemin $d\delta$-lemma and an improved version of the…

Let $M$ be a closed Fano symplectic manifold with a semifree Hamiltonian circle action with isolated maximum. We compute the Gromov width and the Hofer-Zehnder capacity of $M$ using a moment map.

We determine all the terms that are gauge-invariant up to a total spacetime derivative ("semi-invariant terms") for gauged non-linear sigma models. Assuming that the isotropy subgroup $H$ of the gauge group is compact or semi-simple, we…

We survey the progress on the study of symplectic geometry past five decades. The survey focuses on the convexity properties of a moment map, the classification of symplectic actions, the symplectic embedding problems, and the theory of…

This short note considers varieties of the form $G\times S_{\text{reg}}$, where $G$ is a complex semisimple group and $S_{\text{reg}}$ is a regular Slodowy slice in the Lie algebra of $G$. Such varieties arise naturally in hyperk\"ahler…

We define a version of spectral invariant in the vortex Floer theory for a $G$-Hamiltonian manifold $M$. This defines potentially new (partial) symplectic quasi-morphism and quasi-states when $M//G$ is not semi-positive. We also establish a…

We construct open Gromov-Witten invariants in genus zero for arbitrary closed symplectic manifolds and embedded relatively spin Lagrangians, which are weakly unobstructed by a bounding cochain. This uses the foundational work of…

K-theoretic Gromov-Witten invariants of a compact Kahler manifold $X$ are defined as super-dimensions of sheaf cohomology of interesting bundles over moduli spaces of n-pointed holomorphic curves in X. With this article, we begin a series…

We give examples of compactly supported Hamiltonian loops with non zero Calabi invariant on certain open symplectic manifolds.

Given a compact symplectic manifold $M$, with integral symplectic form, we prequantize a certain class of functions on the path space for $M$. The functions in question are induced by functions on $M$. We apply our construction to study the…

We show that for a Hamiltonian action of a compact torus $G$ on a compact, connected symplectic manifold $M$, the $G$-equivariant cohomology is determined by the residual $S^1$ action on the submanifolds of $M$ fixed by codimension-1 tori.…

In this paper we present a Hamiltonian formulation of multisymplectic type of an invariant variational problem on smooth submanifold of dimension $p$ in a smooth manifold of dimension $n$ with $p<n$.

We give a pedagogical review of the computation of Gromov-Witten invariants via localization in 2D gauged linear sigma models. We explain the relationship between the two-sphere partition function of the theory and the Kahler potential on…

In this note, we consider generalizations of the asymptotic Hopf invariant, or helicity, for Hamiltonian systems with one-and-a-half degrees of freedom and symplectic diffeomorphisms of a two-disk to itself.

In this paper, one considers the change of orbifold Gromov-Witten invariants under weighted blow-up at smooth points. Some blow-up formula for Gromov-Witten invariants of symplectic orbifolds is proved. These results extend the results of…

We introduce new invariants associated to collections of compact subsets of a symplectic manifold. They are defined through an elementary-looking variational problem involving Poisson brackets. The proof of the non-triviality of these…

We first introduce an invariant index for G-equivariant elliptic differential operators on a locally compact manifold M admitting a proper cocompact action of a locally compact group G. It generalizes the Kawasaki index for orbifolds to the…

In this paper we provide a criterion for the quasi-autonomous Hamiltonian path (``Hofer's geodesic'') on arbitrary closed symplectic manifolds $(M,\omega)$ to be length minimizing in its homotopy class in terms of the spectral invariants…
