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.
A variational principle introduced to select some symplectic connections leads to field equations which, in the case of the Levi Civita connection of Kähler manifolds, are equivalent to the condition that the Ricci tensor is parallel. This condition, which is stronger than the field equations, is studied in a purely symplectic framework.
Let be a symplectic manifold admitting a metaplectic structure (a symplectic analogue of the Riemannian spin structure) and a torsion-free symplectic connection . Symplectic Killing spinor fields for this structure are sections of the symplectic spinor bundle satisfying a certain first order partial differential equation and they are the main object of this paper. We derive a necessary condition which has to be satisfied by a symplectic Killing spinor field. Using this condition one may easily...
Exterior differential forms with values in the (Kostant’s) symplectic spinor bundle on a manifold with a given metaplectic structure are decomposed into invariant subspaces. Projections to these invariant subspaces of a covariant derivative associated to a torsion-free symplectic connection are described.
Given a symplectic fibration , with compact and symplectic and the fibres complex projective, we produce symplectic submanifolds of analytic in the vertical direction, and apply this to complex vector bundles on symplectic manifolds.
We introduce the symplectic twistor operator in symplectic spin geometry of real dimension two, as a symplectic analogue of the Dolbeault operator in complex spin geometry of complex dimension 1. Based on the techniques of the metaplectic Howe duality and algebraic Weyl algebra, we compute the space of its solutions on .
We study some properties of the k-symplectic Hamiltonian systems in analogy with the well-known classical Hamiltonian systems. The integrability of k-symplectic Hamiltonian systems and the relationships with the Nambu's statistical mechanics are given.
Let be an almost Dirac structure on a manifold . In [2] Theodore James Courant defines the tangent lifting of on and proves that: If is integrable then the tangent lift is also integrable. In this paper, we generalize this lifting to tangent bundle of higher order.
The tangent lifts of higher order of Dirac structures and some properties have been defined in [9] and studied in [11]. By the same way, the tangent lifts of higher order of Poisson structures have been studied in [10] and some applications are given. In particular, the authors have studied the nature of the Lie algebroids and singular foliations induced by these lifting. In this paper, we study the tangent lifts of higher order of multiplicative Poisson structures, multiplicative Dirac structures...
By using the Seiberg-Witten invariant we show that the region under the Noether line in the lattice domain is covered by minimal, simply connected, symplectic 4-manifolds.
It is proved that a closed r-form ω on a manifold M defines a cohomology (called ω-coeffective) on M. A general algebraic machinery is developed to extract some topological information contained in the ω-coeffective cohomology. The cases of 1-forms, symplectic forms, fundamental 2-forms on almost contact manifolds, fundamental 3-forms on -manifolds and fundamental 4-forms in quaternionic manifolds are discussed.
Let be a presymplectic groupoid. In this paper we characterize the infinitesimal counter part of the tangent presymplectic groupoid of higher order, where is the tangent groupoid of higher order and is the complete lift of higher order of presymplectic form .
This paper is the second part of the paper ``The level crossing problem in semi-classical analysis I. The symmetric case''(Annales de l'Institut Fourier in honor of Frédéric Pham). We consider here the case where the dispersion matrix is complex Hermitian.
A symplectic Lie group is a Lie group with a left-invariant symplectic form. Its Lie algebra structure is that of a quasi-Frobenius Lie algebra. In this note, we identify the groupoid analogue of a symplectic Lie group. We call the aforementioned structure a -symplectic Lie groupoid; the “" is motivated by the fact that each target fiber of a -symplectic Lie groupoid is a symplectic manifold. For a Lie groupoid , we show that there is a one-to-one correspondence between quasi-Frobenius Lie algebroid...
