We study the local symplectic algebra of curves. We use the method of algebraic restrictions to classify symplectic $T_7$ singularities. We define discrete symplectic invariants - the Lagrangian tangency orders. We use these invariants to…
This paper gives methods for understanding invariants of symplectic quotients. The symplectic quotients considered here are compact symplectic manifolds (or more generally orbifolds), which arise as the symplectic quotients of a symplectic…
In this paper, we are exploring some of the properties of the self-similar solutions of the first kind. In particular, we shall discuss the kinematic properties and also check the singularities of these solutions. We discuss these…
This is a brief and gentle introduction, aimed at graduate students, to the subject of model subspaces of the Hardy space.
We review a collection of models of random simplicial complexes together with some of the most exciting phenomena related to them. We do not attempt to cover all existing models, but try to focus on those for which many important results…
This encyclopedia article briefly reviews without proofs some of the main results in symplectic reduction. The article recalls most the necessary prerequisites to understand the main results, namely, group actions, momentum maps, and…
I present a brief survey of surveys, and their results and implications, intended to set the context for the ensuing discussion.
This article studies the N-vortex problem in the plane with positive vorticities. After an investigation of some properties for normalised relative equilibria of the system, we use symplectic capacity theory to show that, there exist…
This article explores some geometric and algebraic properties of the dynamical system which is represented by matrix differential equations arising from inertial navigation problems, such as the symplecticity and the orthogonality.…
An overview is provided of the singularity theorems in cosmological contexts at a level suitable for advanced graduate students. The necessary background from tensor and causal geometry to understand the theorems is supplied, the…
The work is devoted to the construction of the asymptotic behavior of the solution of a singularly perturbed system of equations of parabolic type, in the case when the limit equation has a regular singularity as the small parameter tends…
We classify nilmanifolds with an invariant symplectic half-flat structure. We solve the half-flat evolution equations in one example, writing down the resulting Ricci-flat metric. We study the geometry of the orbit space of 6-manifolds with…
Geometric optics is analysed using the techniques of Presymplectic Geometry. We obtain the symplectic structure of the space of light rays in a medium of a non constant refractive index by reduction from a presymplectic structure, and using…
We present an elementary account of mathematical cosmology through a series of important unsolved problems. We introduce the fundamental notion of `a cosmology' and focus on the issue of singularities as a theme unifying many current,…
A new approach to special relativity is presented which introduces coordinate systems with imaginary time axes, observation systems, and coordinate bases.
An important class of contact 3--manifolds are those that arise as links of rational surface singularities with reduced fundamental cycle. We explicitly describe symplectic caps (concave fillings) of such contact 3--manifolds. As an…
The article contains a brief description on the study of conformal scalar curvature equations, and discusses selected topics and questions concerning the equations in open spaces.
A method of constructing a class of bihamiltonian structures is presented. Elements of this class are generalizations of the so-called bihamiltonian structures of general position on odd-dimensional manifolds. The method consists in a…
We consider the global symplectic classification problem of plane curves. First we give the exact classification result under symplectomorphisms, for the case of generic plane curves, namely immersions with transverse self-intersections.…
The symposium has shown the dynamism of this rapidly evolving discipline. I shall concentrate here on some highlights and some complementary informations. I conclude on open questions with some perspectives on solar & stellar activity and…
