𝒞 0 -rigidity of characteristics in symplectic geometry

Emmanuel Opshtein (2009)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

Similarity:

The paper concerns a 𝒞 0 -rigidity result for the characteristic foliations in symplectic geometry. A symplectic homeomorphism (in the sense of Eliashberg-Gromov) which preserves a smooth hypersurface also preserves its characteristic foliation.

Characterization of diffeomorphisms that are symplectomorphisms

Stanisław Janeczko, Zbigniew Jelonek (2009)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let ( X , ω X ) and ( Y , ω Y ) be compact symplectic manifolds (resp. symplectic manifolds) of dimension 2n > 2. Fix 0 < s < n (resp. 0 < k ≤ n) and assume that a diffeomorphism Φ : X → Y maps all 2s-dimensional symplectic submanifolds of X to symplectic submanifolds of Y (resp. all isotropic k-dimensional tori of X to isotropic tori of Y). We prove that in both cases Φ is a conformal symplectomorphism, i.e., there is a constant c ≠0 such that Φ * ω Y = c ω X .

Special Lagrangian linear subspaces in product symplectic space

Małgorzata Mikosz (2004)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

The notes consist of a study of special Lagrangian linear subspaces. We will give a condition for the graph of a linear symplectomorphism f : ( 2 n , σ = i = 1 n d x i d y i ) ( 2 n , σ ) to be a special Lagrangian linear subspace in ( 2 n × 2 n , ω = π * σ - π * σ ) . This way a special symplectic subset in the symplectic group is introduced. A stratification of special Lagrangian Grassmannian S Λ 2 n S U ( 2 n ) / S O ( 2 n ) is defined.

Generalized Conley-Zehnder index

Jean Gutt (2014)

Annales de la faculté des sciences de Toulouse Mathématiques

Similarity:

The Conley-Zehnder index associates an integer to any continuous path of symplectic matrices starting from the identity and ending at a matrix which does not admit 1 as an eigenvalue. Robbin and Salamon define a generalization of the Conley-Zehnder index for any continuous path of symplectic matrices; this generalization is half integer valued. It is based on a Maslov-type index that they define for a continuous path of Lagrangians in a symplectic vector space ( W , Ω ¯ ) , having chosen a given...

A vanishing theorem for twisted Alexander polynomials with applications to symplectic 4-manifolds

Stefan Friedl, Stefano Vidussi (2013)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

In this paper we show that given any 3-manifold N and any non-fibered class in H 1 ( N ; Z ) there exists a representation such that the corresponding twisted Alexander polynomial is zero. We obtain this result by extending earlier work of ours and by combining this with recent results of Agol and Wise on separability of 3-manifold groups. This result allows us to completely classify symplectic 4-manifolds with a free circle action, and to determine their symplectic cones.

Moduli spaces of polarized irreducible symplectic manifolds are not necessarily connected

Apostol Apostolov (2014)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

We show that the moduli space of polarized irreducible symplectic manifolds of K 3 [ n ] -type, of fixed polarization type, is not always connected. This can be derived as a consequence of Eyal Markman’s characterization of polarized parallel-transport operators of K 3 [ n ] -type.

On some completions of the space of hamiltonian maps

Vincent Humilière (2008)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

Similarity:

In one of his papers, C. Viterbo defined a distance on the set of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of 2 n endowed with the standard symplectic form ω 0 = d p d q . We study the completions of this space for the topology induced by Viterbo’s distance and some others derived from it, we study their different inclusions and give some of their properties. In particular, we give a convergence criterion for these distances that allows us to prove that the completions contain non-ordinary elements, as for example,...

Robust transitivity in hamiltonian dynamics

Meysam Nassiri, Enrique R. Pujals (2012)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

Similarity:

A goal of this work is to study the dynamics in the complement of KAM tori with focus on non-local robust transitivity. We introduce C r open sets ( r = 1 , 2 , , ) of symplectic diffeomorphisms and Hamiltonian systems, exhibitingrobustly transitive sets. We show that the C closure of such open sets contains a variety of systems, including so-called unstable integrable systems. In addition, the existence of ergodic measures with large support is obtained for all those systems. A main ingredient of the...

Fano manifolds of degree ten and EPW sextics

Atanas Iliev, Laurent Manivel (2011)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

Similarity:

O’Grady showed that certain special sextics in 5 called EPW sextics admit smooth double covers with a holomorphic symplectic structure. We propose another perspective on these symplectic manifolds, by showing that they can be constructed from the Hilbert schemes of conics on Fano fourfolds of degree ten. As applications, we construct families of Lagrangian surfaces in these symplectic fourfolds, and related integrable systems whose fibers are intermediate Jacobians.

Rabinowitz Floer homology and symplectic homology

Kai Cieliebak, Urs Frauenfelder, Alexandru Oancea (2010)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

Similarity:

The first two authors have recently defined Rabinowitz Floer homology groups R F H * ( M , W ) associated to a separating exact embedding of a contact manifold ( M , ξ ) into a symplectic manifold ( W , ω ) . These depend only on the bounded component V of W M . We construct a long exact sequence in which symplectic cohomology of V maps to symplectic homology of V , which in turn maps to Rabinowitz Floer homology R F H * ( M , W ) , which then maps to symplectic cohomology of V . We compute R F H * ( S T * L , T * L ) , where S T * L is the unit cosphere bundle of a closed...

Some lagrangian invariants of symplectic manifolds

Michel Nguiffo Boyom (2007)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

The KV-homology theory is a new framework which yields interesting properties of lagrangian foliations. This short note is devoted to relationships between the KV-homology and the KV-cohomology of a lagrangian foliation. Let us denote by F (resp. V F ) the KV-algebra (resp. the space of basic functions) of a lagrangian foliation F. We show that there exists a pairing of cohomology and homology to V F . That is to say, there is a bilinear map H q ( F , V F ) × H q ( F , V F ) V F , which is invariant under F-preserving symplectic...

Symplectic critical surfaces in Kähler surfaces

Xiaoli Han, Jiayu Li (2010)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

Let M be a Kähler surface and Σ be a closed symplectic surface which is smoothly immersed in M . Let α be the Kähler angle of Σ in M . We first deduce the Euler-Lagrange equation of the functional L = Σ 1 cos α d μ in the class of symplectic surfaces. It is cos 3 α H = ( J ( J cos α ) ) , where H is the mean curvature vector of Σ in M , J is the complex structure compatible with the Kähler form ω in M , which is an elliptic equation. We call such a surface a symplectic critical surface. We show that, if M is a Kähler-Einstein surface...

On compact homogeneous symplectic manifolds

P. B. Zwart, William M. Boothby (1980)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Similarity:

In this paper the authors study compact homogeneous spaces G / K (of a Lie group G ) on which there if defined a G -invariant symplectic form Ω . It is an important feature of the paper that very little is assumed concerning G and K . The essential assumptions are: (1) G is connected and (2) K is uniform (i.e., G / K is compact). Further, for convenience only and with no loss of generality, it is supposed that G is simply connected and K contains no connected normal subgroup of G , i.e., that G acts...
