On the number of components of the symplectic representatives of the canonical class

Stefano Vidussi (2007)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We show that there exists a family of simply connected, symplectic 4-manifolds such that the (Poincaré dual of the) canonical class admits both connected and disconnected symplectic representatives. This answers a question raised by Fintushel and Stern.

Symplectic embedding of thin discs into a ball

Takeo Nishinou (2004)

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

We perform symplectic embeddings of ‘thin’ discs into a small ball in arbitrary dimension, using the symplectic folding construction.
