In symplectic geometry, symplectic invariants are useful tools in studying symplectic phenomena. Hofer-Zehnder capacity and displacement energy are important symplectic invariants. Usher proved the so-called sharp energy-capacity inequality…
In this note, we obtain new obstructions to symplectic embeddings of a product of disks (a polydisk) into a 4-dimensional ball. The polydisk P(r,s) is the product of the disk of area r with the disk of area s. The ball of capacity a,…
We define the symplectic displacement energy of a non-empty subset of a compact symplectic manifold as the infimum of the Hofer-like norm [5] of symplectic diffeomorphisms that displace the set. We show that this energy (like the usual…
We study symplectic structures on four-dimensional small covers. Our main result shows that every symplectic four-dimensional small cover is aspherical. We then classify symplectic small covers over products of two polygons, proving that…
We present a collection of examples borrowed from celestial mechanics and projective dynamics. In these examples symplectic structures with singularities arise naturally from regularization transformations, Appell's transformation or…
This is the second installment in a series of papers aimed at generalizing symplectic capacities and homologies. We study symmetric versions of symplectic capacities for real symplectic manifolds, and obtain corresponding results for them…
In this paper, we compare the symplectic (co)homology capacity with the spectral capacity in the relative case. This result establishes a chain of inequalities of relative symplectic capacities, which is an analogue of the non-relative…
We present some new examples of separable (\mathcal_\infty) spaces which are (\ell_r) saturated for some (1 < r < \infty).
We use properties of symplectic capacities that were recently defined by Hutchings to obtain upper bounds on the minimal action of Reeb orbits on fiberwise star-shaped hypersurfaces $\Sigma \subset T^*S^2$. In addition, we introduce the…
We present recursive formulas which compute the recently defined "higher symplectic capacities" for all convex toric domains. In the special case of four-dimensional ellipsoids, we apply homological perturbation theory to the associated…
Spatial cruciform quantum waveguides (the Dirichlet problem for Laplace operator) are constructed such that the total multiplicity of the discrete spectrum exceeds any preassigned number.
We consider an overdetermined problem arising in potential theory for the capacitary potential and we prove a radial symmetry result.
We discuss closed symplectic 4-manifolds which admit full symplectic packings by $N$ equal balls for large $N$'s. We give a homological criterion for recognizing such manifolds. As a corollary we prove that ${\Bbb C}P^2$ can be fully packed…
We study the structure of spherically symmetric and static objects in the presence of a nonminimally coupled scalar field having a potential of the form $V(\phi)=-\mu^2\phi^2/2+\lambda\phi^4/4$. We numerically solve equations of the system…
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…
It is shown that in the rest frame of the observer in expanding Universe states of particles with negative energy exist.The properties of such states are studied. The comparison with the case of negative energies of particles in black holes…
We consider a particle with a position-dependent mass, moving in a three-dimensional semi-infinite parallelepipedal or cylindrical channel under the influence of some hyperbolic potential. We show that the lack of uniformity in the…
This note develops certain sharp inequalities relating the fractional Sobolev capacity of a set to its standard volume and fractional perimeter.
In this paper we study a parametrised non-cooperative symmetric semi-linear elliptic system on a sphere. Assuming that there exist critical orbits of the potential, we study the structure of the sets of solutions of the system. In…
We discuss some examples of open manifolds which admit non-isomorphic symplectic structures of Liouville type.
