Handle attaching in symplectic homology and the Chord Conjecture

Kai Cieliebak (2002)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Arnold conjectured that every Legendrian knot in the standard contact structure on the 3-sphere possesses a haracteristic chord with respect to any contact form. I confirm this conjecture if the know has Thurston-Bennequin invariant − 1 . More generally, existence of chords is proved for a standard Legendrian unknot on the boundary of a subcritical Stein manifold of any dimension. There is also a multiplicity result which implies in some situations existence of infinitely many chords. The proof relies...

Harder-Narasimhan filtrations and optimal destabilizing vectors in complex geometry

Laurent Bruasse, Andrei Teleman (2005)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We give here a generalization of the theory of optimal destabilizing 1-parameter subgroups to non algebraic complex geometry : we consider holomorphic actions of a complex reductive Lie group on a finite dimensional (possibly non compact) Kähler manifold. In a second part we show how these results may extend in the gauge theoretical framework and we discuss the relation between the Harder-Narasimhan filtration and the optimal detstabilizing vectors of a non semistable object....

Harmonic maps and Riemannian submersions between manifolds endowed with special structures

Stere Ianuş, Gabriel Eduard Vîlcu, Rodica Cristina Voicu (2011)

Banach Center Publications

It is well known that Riemannian submersions are of interest in physics, owing to their applications in the Yang-Mills theory, Kaluza-Klein theory, supergravity and superstring theories. In this paper we give a survey of harmonic maps and Riemannian submersions between manifolds equipped with certain geometrical structures such as almost Hermitian structures, contact structures, f-structures and quaternionic structures. We also present some new results concerning holomorphic maps and semi-Riemannian...

Hierarchy of integrable geodesic flows.

Peter Topalov (2000)

Publicacions Matemàtiques

A family of integrable geodesic flows is obtained. Any such a family corresponds to a pair of geodesically equivalent metrics.

Higher symmetries of the Laplacian via quantization

Jean-Philippe Michel (2014)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We develop a new approach, based on quantization methods, to study higher symmetries of invariant differential operators. We focus here on conformally invariant powers of the Laplacian over a conformally flat manifold and recover results of Eastwood, Leistner, Gover and Šilhan. In particular, conformally equivariant quantization establishes a correspondence between the algebra of Hamiltonian symmetries of the null geodesic flow and the algebra of higher symmetries of the conformal Laplacian. Combined...

Hofer’s metrics and boundary depth

Michael Usher (2013)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

We show that if ( M , ω ) is a closed symplectic manifold which admits a nontrivial Hamiltonian vector field all of whose contractible closed orbits are constant, then Hofer’s metric on the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of  ( M , ω ) has infinite diameter, and indeed admits infinite-dimensional quasi-isometrically embedded normed vector spaces. A similar conclusion applies to Hofer’s metric on various spaces of Lagrangian submanifolds, including those Hamiltonian-isotopic to the diagonal in  M × M when M satisfies...

Hofer–Zehnder capacity of unit disk cotangent bundles and the loop product

Kei Irie (2014)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We prove a new finiteness result for the Hofer–Zehnder capacity of certain unit disk cotangent bundles. It is proved by a computation of the pair-of-pants product on Floer homology of cotangent bundles, combined with the theory of spectral invariants. The computation of the pair-of-pants product is reduced to a simple key computation of the Chas–Sullivan loop product.

Holomorphic Poisson Cohomology

Zhuo Chen, Daniele Grandini, Yat-Sun Poon (2015)

Complex Manifolds

Holomorphic Poisson structures arise naturally in the realm of generalized geometry. A holomorphic Poisson structure induces a deformation of the complex structure in a generalized sense, whose cohomology is obtained by twisting the Dolbeault @-operator by the holomorphic Poisson bivector field. Therefore, the cohomology space naturally appears as the limit of a spectral sequence of a double complex. The first sheet of this spectral sequence is simply the Dolbeault cohomology with coefficients in...
