We prove a theorem on singular symplectic cotangent bundle reduction in the Fr\'echet setting and apply it to Yang-Mills-Higgs theory with special emphasis on the Higgs sector of the Glashow-Weinberg-Salam model. For the latter model we…

We extend our earlier work in [TZ1], where an analytic approach to the Guillemin-Sternberg conjecture [GS] was developed, to cases where the Spin^c-complex under consideration is allowed to be further twisted by certain exterior power…

We show that if a Lie group acts properly on a co-oriented contact manifold preserving the contact structure, then the contact quotient is topologically a stratified space (in the sense that a neighborhood of a point in the quotient is a…

We prove that any coadjoint orbit with real eigenvalues of a complex semisimple Lie group, equipped with the real part of the canonical holomorphic symplectic form, is symplectomorphic to the cotangent bundle of a (partial) flag manifold.…

This text presents some basic notions in symplectic geometry, Poisson geometry, Hamiltonian systems, Lie algebras and Lie groups actions on symplectic or Poisson manifolds, momentum maps and their use for the reduction of Hamiltonian…

In this article, motivated by the study of symplectic structures on manifolds with boundary and the systematic study of $b$-symplectic manifolds started in [12], we prove a slice theorem for Lie group actions on $b$-symplectic manifolds.

For symplectic group actions which are not Hamiltonian there are two ways to define reduction. Firstly using the cylinder-valued momentum map and secondly lifting the action to any Hamiltonian cover (such as the universal cover), and then…

We construct an $\mathcal{N}$ supersymmetric sigma model on the cotangent bundle over the Hermitian symmetric space $E_7/(E_6\times U(1))$ in the projective superspace formalism, which is a manifest $\mathcal{N}=2$ off-shell superfield…

We discuss Lagrangian and Hamiltonian field theories that are invariant under a symmetry group. We apply the polysymplectic reduction theorem for both types of field equations and we investigate aspects of the corresponding reconstruction…

We study multisymplectic structures taking values in vector bundles with connections from the viewpoint of the Hamiltonian symmetry. We introduce the notion of bundle-valued $n$-plectic structures and exhibit some properties of them. In…

Let $K$ be a compact Lie group. We introduce the process of symplectic implosion, which associates to every Hamiltonian $K$-manifold a stratified space called the imploded cross-section. It bears a resemblance to symplectic reduction, but…

We introduce the notion of a Hamiltonian action of an \'etale Lie group stack on an \'etale symplectic stack and establish versions of the Kirwan convexity theorem, the Meyer-Marsden-Weinstein symplectic reduction theorem, and the…

In previous work with M.C. Fernandes, we found a Lie algebroid symmetry for the Einstein evolution equations of general relativity. The present work was motivated by the effort to explain the coisotropic structure of the constraint subset…

Let $G$ be a compact and connected Lie group. The Hamiltonian $G$-model functor maps the category of symplectic representations of closed subgroups of $G$ to the category of exact Hamiltonian $G$-actions. Based on previous joint work with…

We introduce the notion of 0-shifted cosymplectic structure on differentiable stacks and develop a corresponding moment map theory for Hamiltonian cosymplectic actions. We present a reduction procedure, establish a version of the Kirwan…

It is shown that the cotangent bundle of a matched pair Lie group is itself a matched pair Lie group. The trivialization of the cotangent bundle of a matched pair Lie group are presented. On the trivialized space, the canonical symplectic…

We introduce the process of symplectic reduction along a submanifold as a uniform approach to taking quotients in symplectic geometry. This construction holds in the categories of smooth manifolds, complex analytic spaces, and complex…

A general slice theorem for the action of a Fr\'echet Lie group on a Fr\'echet manifolds is established. The Nash-Moser theorem provides the fundamental tool to generalize the result of Palais to this infinite-dimensional setting. The…

We establish a general slice theorem for the action of a locally convex Lie group on a locally convex manifold, which generalizes the classical slice theorem of Palais to infinite dimensions. We discuss two important settings under which…

The classical Arnold-Liouville theorem describes the geometry of an integrable Hamiltonian system near a regular level set of the moment map. Our results describe it near a nondegenerate singular level set: a tubular neighborhood of a…
