Given a symplectic 4-manifold $(X,\omega)$ with rational symplectic form, Auroux constructed branched coverings to $(CP^2,\omega_{FS})$. By modifying a previous construction of Lambert-Cole--Meier--Starkston, we prove that the branch locus…

In this paper we study the size of the fixed point set of a Hamiltonian diffeomorphism on a closed symplectic manifold which is both rational and weakly monotone. We show that there exists a non-trivial cycle of fixed points whenever the…

Consider a Hamiltonian circle action on a closed $8$-dimensional symplectic manifold $M$ with exactly five fixed points, which is the smallest possible fixed set. In their paper, L. Godinho and S. Sabatini show that if $M$ satisfies an…

Consider an effective Hamiltonian circle action on a compact symplectic $2n$-dimensional manifold $(M, \omega)$. Assume that the fixed set $M^{S^1}$ is {\em minimal}, in two senses: it has exactly two components, $X$ and $Y$, and $\dim(X) +…

Let $M$ be a closed 4-manifold with a free circle action. If the orbit manifold $N^3$ satisfies an appropriate fibering condition, then we show how to represent a cone in $H^2(M;\R)$ by symplectic forms. This generalizes earlier…

Let M be a compact, connected symplectic 2n-dimensional manifold on which an(n-2)-dimensional torus T acts effectively and Hamiltonianly. Under the assumption that there is an effective complementary 2-torus acting on M with symplectic…

This paper studies the (small) quantum homology and cohomology of fibrations $p: P\to S^2$ whose structural group is the group of Hamiltonian symplectomorphisms of the fiber $(M,\om)$. It gives a proof that the rational cohomology splits…

A symplectic reductive homogeneous space is a pair $(G/H,\Omega)$, where $G/H$ is a reductive homogeneous $G$-space and $\Omega$ is a $G$-invariant symplectic form on it. The main examples include symplectic Lie groups, symplectic symmetric…

Let $X$ be a compact connected Riemann surface and $D$ an effective divisor on $X$. Let ${\mathcal N}_H(r,d)$ denote the moduli space of $D$-twisted stable Higgs bundles (a special class of Hitchin pairs) on $X$ of rank $r$ and degree $d$.…

Let $(M,\omega)$ be a Hamiltonian $G$-space with a momentum map $F:M \to {\frak g}^*$. It is well-known that if $\alpha$ is a regular value of $F$ and $G$ acts freely and properly on the level set $F^{-1}(G\cdot \alpha)$, then the reduced…

We prove that any symplectic Fano $6$-manifold $M$ with a Hamiltonian $S^1$-action is simply connected and satisfies $c_1 c_2(M)=24$. This is done by showing that the fixed submanifold $M_{\min}\subseteq M$ on which the Hamiltonian attains…
