Symplectic Weiss calculi

We provide two candidates for symplectic Weiss calculus based on two different, but closely related, collections of groups. In the case of the non-compact symplectic groups, i.e., automorphism groups of vector spaces with symplectic forms, we show that the calculus deformation retracts onto unitary calculus as a corollary of the fact that Weiss calculus only depends on the homotopy type of the groupoid core of the diagram category. In the case of the compact symplectic groups, i.e., automorphism groups of quaternion vector spaces, we provide a comparison with the other known versions of Weiss calculus analogous to the comparisons of calculi of the second named author, and classify certain stably trivial quaternion vector bundles over finite cell complexes in a range, using elementary results on convergence of Weiss calculi.
