We establish that Hitchin's connection exist for any rigid holomorphic family of Kahler structures on any compact pre-quantizable symplectic manifold which satisfies certain simple topological constraints. Using Toeplitz operators we prove…

We study the orbit structure and the geometric quantization of a pair of mutually commuting hamiltonian actions on a symplectic manifold. If the pair of actions fulfils a symplectic Howe condition, we show that there is a canonical…

We prove that any compact complex homogeneous space with vanishing first Chern class after an appropriate deformation of the complex structure admits a homogeneous Calabi-Yau with torsion structure, provided that it also has an invariant…

This paper deals with symplectic varieties which do not have symplectic resolutions. Some moduli spaces of semi-stable torsion-free sheaves on a K3 surface, and symplectic V-manifolds are such varieties. We shall prove local Torelli theorem…

As their smooth analogue the irreducible symplectic varieties appear as elementary bricks in the generalizations of the Bogomolov decomposition theorem (arXiv:math/0402243, arXiv:2012.00441). Let $S$ be a K3 surface; generalizing the Fujiki…

In this note, we extend the theory of Chern-Cheeger-Simons to construct canonical invariants for a one-parameter family of flat connections on a smooth manifold. These invariants lie in degrees $(2p-2)$-cohomology with $\C/\Z$-cohomology,…

We study McDuff-Salamon's Problem 46 by showing that there exist closed manifolds of dimension $\geq 6$ admitting cohomologous symplectic forms with different Gromov widths. The examples are motivated by Ruan's early example of deformation…

This paper deals with the following question: which manifolds can be realized as leaves of codimension-1 symplectic foliations on closed manifolds? We first observe that leaves of symplectic foliations are necessarily strongly geometrically…

A geometric quantization of a K\"{a}hler manifold, viewed as a symplectic manifold, depends on the complex structure compatible with the symplectic form. The quantizations form a vector bundle over the space of such complex structures.…

Let $\omega$ be a Kaehler form on the real $4$-torus $T^4$. Suppose that $\omega$ satisfies an irrationality condition which can be achieved by an arbitrarily small perturbation of $\omega$. This note shows that the smoothly trivial…

Let $X$ denote the `conifold smoothing', the symplectic Weinstein manifold which is the complement of a smooth conic in $T^*S^3$, or equivalently the plumbing of two copies of $T^*S^3$ along a Hopf link. Let $Y$ denote the `conifold…
