The real symplectic Stiefel manifold is the manifold of symplectic bases of symplectic subspaces of a fixed dimension. It features in a large variety of applications in physics and engineering. In this work, we study this manifold with the…

In this paper we study the reduction of a nonholonomic system by a group of symmetries in two steps. Using the so-called 'vertical-symmetry' condition, we first perform a 'compression' of the nonholonomic system leading to an almost…

The intention of this article is to illustrate the use of methods from symplectic geometry for practical purposes. Our intended audience is scientists interested in orbits of Hamiltonian systems (e.g. the three-body problem). The main…

We investigate Snyder space-time and its generalizations, including Yang and Snyder-de-Sitter spaces, which constitute manifestly Lorenz invariant noncommutative geometries. This work initiates a systematic study of gauge theory on such…

We initiate the study of the norm-squared of the momentum map as a rigorous tool in infinite dimensions. In particular, we calculate the Hessian at a critical point, show that it is positive semi-definite along the complexified orbit, and…

We develop a geometric approach to Poisson electrodynamics, that is, the semi-classical limit of noncommutative $U(1)$ gauge theory. Our framework is based on an integrating symplectic groupoid for the underlying Poisson brackets, which we…

This paper presents the first optimal-rate $p$-th order methods with $p\geq 1$ for finding first and second-order stationary points of non-convex smooth objective functions over Riemannian manifolds. In contrast to the geodesically convex…

Let $G_{\P}$ be a compact simple Poisson-Lie group equipped with a Poisson structure $\P$ and $(M, \o)$ be a symplectic manifold. Assume that $M$ carries a Poisson action of $G_{\P}$ and there is an equivariant moment map in the sense of Lu…

In a previous article, we introduced a reduction procedure for locally conformally symplectic manifolds at any regular value of the momentum mapping. We use this construction to prove an analogue of a well-known theorem in the symplectic…

For a proper Hamiltonian action of a Lie group $G$ on a K\"ahler manifold $(X,\omega)$ with momentum map $\mu$ we show that the symplectic reduction $\mu^{-1}(0)/G$ is a normal complex space. Every point in $\mu^{-1}(0)$ has a $G$-stable…

In this paper, we discuss the reduction of symplectic Hamiltonian systems by scaling and standard symmetries which commute. We prove that such a reduction process produces a so-called Kirillov Hamiltonian system. Moreover, we show that if…

Let $p$ be a prime number. We introduce symplectic actions of $p$-adic analytic Lie groups on $p$-adic symplectic manifolds. Then we show that any $p$-adic symplectic action $G\times(M,\omega)\to(M,\omega)$ has a momentum map…
