A nonlinear flag is a finite sequence of nested closed submanifolds. We study the geometry of Frechet manifolds of nonlinear flags, in this way generalizing the nonlinear Grassmannians. As an application we describe a class of coadjoint…

Decorated and augmented nonlinear Grassmannians can be used to parametrize coadjoint orbits of classical diffeomorphism groups. We provide a general framework for decoration and augmentation functors that facilitates the construction of a…

A weighted nonlinear flag is a nested set of closed submanifolds, each submanifold endowed with a volume density. We study the geometry of Frechet manifolds of weighted nonlinear flags, in this way generalizing the weighted nonlinear…

Let (M,g) be a compact Riemannian manifold of dimension n. For k \in {0,...,n}, we denote Gr_{k}(M) the set of compact, connected and oriented submanifolds of M of dimension k. This set is called the non-linear Grassmannian. In this…

We use cotangent bundles of spaces of smooth embeddings to construct symplectic dual pairs involving the group of volume preserving diffeomorphisms. Via symplectic reduction we obtain descriptions of coadjoint orbits of this group in terms…

We describe a class of coadjoint orbits of the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of a symplectic manifold $(M,\omega)$ by implementing symplectic reduction for the dual pair associated to the Hamiltonian description of ideal fluids. The…

We generalize here our general procedure for constructing constant curvature maps of 2-spheres into Grassmannian manifolds G(m,n) this time concentrating our attention on maps which are non-holomorphic. We present some expressions…

We investigate the non-diagonal normal forms of a quadratic form on R^n, in particular for n=3. For this case it is shown that the set of normal forms is the closure of a 5-dimensional submanifold in the 6-dimensional Grassmannian of…

The geometric non-linear Schrodinger equation (GNLS) on the complex Grassmannian manifold M is the Hamiltonian equation for the energy functional on C(R,M) with respect to the symplectic form induced from the Kahler form on M. It has a Lax…

In this paper we study a Hamiltonian function on the cotangent bundle of the space of Riemannian metrics on a 3-manifold $M$ and prove the orbits of the constrained Hamiltonian dynamical system correspond to $G_2$-manifolds foliated by…

We give a classification of generic coadjoint orbits for the group of area-preserving diffeomorphisms of a closed non-orientable surface. This completes V. Arnold's program of studying invariants of incompressible fluids in 2D. As an…

We give a classification of generic coadjoint orbits for the groups of symplectomorphisms and Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of a closed symplectic surface. We also classify simple Morse functions on symplectic surfaces with respect to actions…

On the Grassmann manifold G (m, n) of m-dimensional subspaces of an n-dimensional projective space P^n, a certain supplementary construction called the normalization is considered. By means of this normalization, one can construct the…

We show that the Gromov width of the Grassmannian of complex k-planes in C^n is equal to one when the symplectic form is normalized so that it generates the integral cohomology in degree 2. We deduce the lower bound from more general…

There is a hierarchy of commuting soliton equations associated to each symmetric space U/K. When U/K has rank n, the first n flows in the hierarchy give rise to a natural first order non-linear system of partial diffferential equations in n…

A submanifold of a Riemannian symmetric space is called parallel if its second fundamental form is a parallel section of the appropriate tensor bundle. We classify parallel submanifolds of the Grassmannian $\rmG^+_2(\R^{n+2})$ which…

We develop a correspondence between the orbits of the group of linear symplectomorphisms of a real finite dimensional symplectic vector space in the complex Lagrangian Grassmannian and the Grassmannians of linear subspaces of the real…

Let G be a Lie goup, let M and N be smooth connected G-manifolds, let f be a smooth G-map from M to N, and let P denote the fiber of f. Given a closed and equivariantly closed relative 2-form for f with integral periods, we construct the…

Generalizing the canonical symplectization of contact manifolds, we construct an infinite dimensional non-linear Stiefel manifold of weighted embeddings into a contact manifold. This space carries a symplectic structure such that the…

Let $M$ be complete flat pseudo-Riemannian homogeneous manifold and $\Gamma\subset\Iso(\RR^n_s)$ its fundamental group. We show that $M$ is a trivial fiber bundle $G/\Gamma\to M\to\RR^{n-k}$, where $G$ is the Zariski closure of $\Gamma$ in…
