For $(\mathbb{C} P^2 \# 5{\overline {\mathbb{C} P^2}},\omega)$, let $N_{\omega}$ be the number of $(-2)$-symplectic spherical homology classes.We completely determine the Torelli symplectic mapping class group (Torelli SMCG): the Torelli…

We study the extension of homologically trivial symplectic or Hamiltonian cyclic actions to Hamiltonian circle actions on irrational ruled symplectic $4$-manifolds. On one hand, we construct symplectic involutions on minimal irrational…

Let $(M, \omega)$ be a connected, compact symplectic manifold equipped with a Hamiltonian $G$ action, where $G$ is a connected compact Lie group. Let $\phi$ be the moment map. In \cite{L}, we proved the following result for $G=S^1$ action:…

We consider the 3-point blow-up of the manifold $ (S^2 \times S^2, \sigma \oplus \sigma)$ where $\sigma$ is the standard symplectic form which gives area 1 to the sphere $S^2$, and study its group of symplectomorphisms $\rm{Symp} ( S^2…

Let $M$ be either $S^2\times S^2$ or the one point blow-up $\cp# \bcp$ of $\cp$. In both cases $M$ carries a family of symplectic forms $\om_\la$, where $\la > -1$ determines the cohomology class $[\om_\la]$. This paper calculates the…

The purpose of this article is to characterize symplectic and Hamiltonian circle actions on symplectic manifolds in terms of symplectic embeddings of Riemann surfaces. More precisely, we will show that (1) if $(M,\omega)$ admits a…

Let $\text{Ham(M)}$ be the group of Hamiltonian symplectomorphisms of a quantizable, compact, symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$. We prove the existence of an action integral around loops in $\text{Ham(M)}$, and determine the value of this…

We show that the fundamental group of Symp(M,w) can be nontrivial for M that does not admit any symplectic circle action.

Let $(M, \omega)$ be a connected compact symplectic manifold equipped with a Hamiltonian SU(2) or SO(3) action. We prove that, as fundamental group of topological spaces, $\pi_1(M)=\pi_1(M_{red})$, where $M_{red}$ is the symplectic quotient…

This note describes some recent results about the homotopy properties of Hamiltonian loops in various manifolds, including toric manifolds and one point blow ups. We describe conditions under which a circle action does not contract in the…

Let $M=(M,\omega)$ be either the product $S^2\times S^2$ or the non-trivial $S^2$ bundle over $S^2$ endowed with any symplectic form $\omega$. Suppose a finite cyclic group $Z_n$ is acting effectively on $(M,\omega)$ through Hamiltonian…

We classify symplectic non-Hamiltonian circle actions on compact connected symplectic 4-manifolds, up to equivariant symplectomorphisms. Namely, we define a set of invariants, show that the set is complete, and determine which values are…

Let $(M,\omega)$ be a closed symplectic manifold and $\textup{Ham}(M,\omega)$ the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of $(M,\omega)$. Then the Seidel homomorphism is a map from the fundamental group of $\textup{Ham}(M,\omega)$ to the…

We address the problem of computing the fundamental group of a symplectic $S^1$-manifold for non-Hamiltonian actions on compact manifolds, and for Hamiltonian actions on non-compact manifolds with a proper moment map. We generalize known…

In this paper I construct, using off the shelf components, a compact symplectic manifold with a non-trivial Hamiltonian circle action that admits no Kaehler structure. The non-triviality of the action is guaranteed by the existence of an…

This paper studies Hamiltonian circle actions, i.e. circle subgroups of the group Ham(M,\om) of Hamiltonian symplectomorphisms of a closed symplectic manifold (M,\om). Our main tool is the Seidel representation of \pi_1(\Ham(M,\om)) in the…

We study loops of symplectic diffeomorphisms of closed symplectic manifolds. Our main result, which is valid for a large class of symplectic manifolds, shows that the flux of a symplectic loop vanishes whenever its orbits are contractible.…

Let $p$ be a prime number. We introduce symplectic actions of $p$-adic analytic Lie groups on $p$-adic symplectic manifolds. Then we show that any $p$-adic symplectic action $G\times(M,\omega)\to(M,\omega)$ has a momentum map…

We study the relation between the symplectomorphism group Symp M of a closed connected symplectic manifold M and the symplectomorphism and diffeomorphism groups Symp \TM and Diff \TM of its one point blow up \TM. There are three main…

This paper studies the question of when a loop $\phi$ in the group Symp$(M,\omega)$ of symplectomorphisms of a symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$ is isotopic to a loop that is generated by a time-dependent Hamiltonian function. (Loops with…
