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.

Symplectic Capacities in Manifolds

Alfred Künzle (1997)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

Symplectic capacities coinciding on convex sets in the standard symplectic vector space are extended to any subsets of symplectic manifolds. It is shown that, using embeddings of non-smooth convex sets and a product formula, calculations of some capacities become very simple. Moreover, it is proved that there exist such capacities which are distinct and that there are star-shaped domains diffeomorphic to the ball but not symplectomorphic to any convex set.

Invariant properties of the generalized canonical mappings

Stanisław Janeczko (1999)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

One of the fundamental objectives of the theory of symplectic singularities is to study the symplectic invariants appearing in various geometrical contexts. In the paper we generalize the symplectic cohomological invariant to the class of generalized canonical mappings. We analyze the global structure of Lagrangian Grassmannian in the product symplectic space and describe the local properties of generic symplectic relations.
