Submanifold averaging in riemannian and symplecitc geometry

Differential Geometry 2007-05-23 v2 Symplectic Geometry

Abstract

We give a construction to obtain canonically an ``isotropic average'' of given C1C^1-close isotropic submanifolds of a symplectic manifold. To do so we use an improvement of Weinstein's submanifold averaging theorem (obtained in collaboration with H. Karcher) and apply ``Moser's trick''. We also present an application to Hamiltonian group actions.
