We prove a contact non-squeezing phenomenon on homotopy spheres that are fillable by Liouville domains with infinite dimensional symplectic homology: there exists a smoothly embedded ball in such a sphere that cannot be made arbitrarily…

We show, in this note, that on any symplectic supermanifold, even or odd, there exist an infinite dimensional affine space of symmetric connections, compatible to the symplectic form.

An odd-dimensional differentiable manifold is called \emph{holomorphically fillable} if it is diffeomorphic to the boundary of a compact strongly pseudoconvex complex manifold, \emph{Stein fillable} if this last manifold may be chosen to be…

We study smooth projective varieties with small dual variety using methods from symplectic topology. We prove the affine parts of such varieties are subcritical, and that the hyperplane class is invertible in their quantum cohomology. We…

The density property for a Stein manifold X implies that the group of holomorphic diffeomorphisms of X is infinite-dimensional and, in a certain well-defined sense, as large as possible. We prove that if G is a complex semisimple Lie group…

We construct a sequence of rank 3 distributions on $n$-dimensional manifolds for any $n\geq 7$ such that the dimension of their symmetry group grows exponentially in $n$ (more precisely it is equal to $\operatorname{Fib}_{n-1}+n+2$, where…

We consider two basic problems of algebraic topology, the extension problem and the computation of higher homotopy groups, from the point of view of computability and computational complexity. The extension problem is the following: Given…

Let $\mathcal{M}_{C}(2, 0)$ be the moduli space of semistable rank two and degree zero Higgs bundles on a smooth complex hyperelliptic curve $C$ of genus three. We prove that the quotient of $\mathcal{M}_{C}(2, 0)$ by a twisted version of…

Relations between the symplectically harmonic cohomology and the coeffective cohomology of a symplectic manifold are obtained. This is achieved through a generalization of the latter, which in addition allows us to provide a coeffective…

In this paper, the symplectic genus for any 2-dimensional class in a 4-manifold admitting a symplectic structure is introduced, and its relation with the minimal genus is studied. It is used to describe which classes in rational and…

In this paper we obtain the following results: (1) Any compact Stein surface with boundary embeds naturally into a symplectic Lefschetz fibration over the 2-sphere. (2) There exists a minimal elliptic fibration over the 2-disk, which is not…

Under certain homological hypotheses on a compact 4-manifold, we prove exactness of the topological surgery sequence at the stably smoothable normal invariants. The main examples are the class of finite connected sums of 4-manifolds with…

We study holomorphic spheres in certain symplectic cobordisms and derive information about periodic Reeb orbits in the concave end of these cobordisms from the non-compactness of the relevant moduli spaces. We use this to confirm the strong…

P. M. Akhmetiev used a controlled version of the stable Hopf invariant to show that any (continuous) map N -> M between stably parallelizable compact n-manifolds, n\ne 1,2,3,7, is realizable in R^{2n}, i.e. the composition of f with an…

Consider the configuration spaces of manifolds. An influential theorem of McDuff, Segal and Church shows that the (co)homology of the unordered configuration space is independent of number of points in a range of degree called the stable…

We prove that group homology of the diffeomorphism group of $\#^g S^n \times S^n$ as a discrete group is independent of $g$ in a range, provided that $n>2$. This answers the high dimensional version of a question posed by Morita about…

We construct examples of nonresolvable generalized $n$-manifolds, $n\geq 6$, with arbitrary resolution obstruction, homotopy equivalent to any simply connected, closed $n$-manifold. We further investigate the structure of generalized…

The quantum homology of the monotone complex quadric surface splits into the sum of two fields. We outline a proof of the following statement: The unities of these fields give rise to distinct symplectic quasi-states defined by asymptotic…

Motivated by and extending the technical results in our earlier work on symplectic Calabi-Yau $4$-manifolds, a general and systematic approach for studying certain unions of symplectic embedded surfaces in a rational $4$-manifold $X=CP^2\#…

We prove the uniqueness, up to diffeomorphism, of symplectically aspherical fillings of the unit cotangent bundle of odd-dimensional spheres. As applications, we first show the non-existence of exact symplectic cobordisms between some…
