We study the following rigidity problem in symplectic geometry:can one displace a Lagrangian submanifold from a hypersurface? We relate this to the Arnold Chord Conjecture, and introduce a refined question about the existence of relative…
In this paper, we introduce a geometric flow for Lagrangian submanifolds in a K\"ahler manifold that stays in its initial Hamiltonian isotopy class and is a gradient flow for volume. The stationary solutions are the Hamiltonian stationary…
Let $\Diff^{ r}_m(M)$ be the set of $C^{ r}$ volume-preserving diffeomorphisms on a compact Riemannian manifold $M$ ($\dim M\geq 2$). In this paper, we prove that the diffeomorphisms without zero Lyapunov exponents on a set of positive…
The main theme of this paper is a relative version of the almost existence theorem for periodic orbits of autonomous Hamiltonian systems. We show that almost all low levels of a function on a geometrically bounded symplectically aspherical…
Let $M$ be a closed manifold. Polterovich constructed a linear map from the vector space of quasi-morphisms on the fundamental group $\pi _{1}(M)$ of $M$ to the space of quasi-morphisms on the identity component ${\rm…
Given a closed symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$ we introduce a certain quantity associated to a tuple of conjugacy classes in the universal cover of the group ${\hbox{\it Ham}} (M,\omega)$ by means of the Hofer metric on ${\hbox{\it Ham}}…
We prove several cases of Zimmer's conjecture for actions of higher-rank cocompact lattices on low dimensional manifolds. For example, if $\Gamma$ is a cocompact lattice in $\mathrm{Sl}(n, \mathbb R)$, $M$ is a compact manifold, and…
In this paper we generalize the main result of [4] for manifolds that are not necessarily Einstein. In fact, we obtain an upper bound for the volume of a locally volume-minimizing closed hypersurface $\Sigma$ of a Riemannian 5-manifold $M$…
We prove that for any two Riemannian metrics $\sigma_1, \sigma_2$ on the unit disk, a homeomorphism $\partial\mathbb{D}\to\partial\mathbb{D}$ extends to at most one quasiconformal minimal diffeomorphism $(\mathbb{D},\sigma_1)\to…
In this paper we prove a single exponential upper bound on the number of possible homotopy types of the fibres of a Pfaffian map, in terms of the format of its graph. In particular we show that if a semi-algebraic set $S \subset…
We study parabolic automorphisms of irreducible holomorphically symplectic manifolds with a lagrangian fibration. Such automorphisms are (possibly up to taking a power) fiberwise translations on smooth fibers, and their orbits in a general…
We give a new proof of the well-known result that the minimal volume vector fields on $\mathbb{S}^3(r)$ are the Hopf vector fields. Such proof relies again on calibration theory, arising here from a systematic point of view given by a…
In [CKM17], Chodosh, Ketover, and Maximo proved finite diffeomorphism theorems for complete embedded minimal hypersurfaces of dimension $\leqslant$ 6 with finite index and bounded volume growth ratio. In this paper, we adapt their method to…
Let $\mathcal{M}_g$ be the moduli space of hyperbolic surfaces of genus g endowed with the Weil-Petersson metric. In this paper, we introduce a function $L(g)$ of genus $g$ and call the geodesics whose length less than $L(g)$ short…
Let Y be an infinite covering space of a projective manifold M in P^N of dimension n geq 2. Let C be the intersection with M of at most n-1 generic hypersurfaces of degree d in P^N. The preimage X of C in Y is a connected submanifold. Let…
Let $(M^4,\omega)$ be a geometrically bounded symplectic manifold, and $L\subset M$ a Lagrangian nodal sphere such that $\omega\mid_{\pi_2(M,L)}=0$. We show that an equatorial Dehn twist of $L$ does not extend to a Hamiltonian…
We develop Floer theory of Lagrangian torus fibers in compact symplectic toric orbifolds. We first classify holomorphic orbi-discs with boundary on Lagrangian torus fibers. We show that there exists a class of basic discs such that we have…
The Floer homology of a cotangent bundle is isomorphic to loop space homology of the underlying manifold, as proved by Abbondandolo-Schwarz, Salamon-Weber, and Viterbo. In this paper we show that in the presence of a Dirac magnetic monopole…
This paper gives two results that show that the dynamics of a time-periodic Lagrangian system on a hyperbolic manifold are at least as complicated as the geodesic flow of a hyperbolic metric. Given a hyperbolic geodesic in the Poincar\'e…
