  • Hamiltonian group actions on exact Symplectic Manifolds with proper momentum maps are standard
    Transactions of the American Mathematical Society, 2017
    Co-Authors: Yael Karshon, Fabian Ziltener
    Abstract:

    We give a complete characterization of Hamiltonian actions of compact Lie groups on exact Symplectic Manifolds with proper momentum maps. We deduce that every Hamiltonian action of a compact Lie group on a contractible Symplectic Manifold with a proper momentum map is globally linearizable.

  • hofer geometry of a subset of a Symplectic Manifold
    Geometriae Dedicata, 2013
    Co-Authors: Jan Swoboda, Fabian Ziltener
    Abstract:

    To every closed subset X of a Symplectic Manifold (M, ω) we associate a natural group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms Ham (X, ω). We equip this group with a semi-norm \({\Vert\cdot\Vert^{X, \omega}}\), generalizing the Hofer norm. We discuss Ham (X, ω) and \({\Vert\cdot\Vert^{X, \omega}}\) if X is a Symplectic or isotropic subManifold. The main result involves the relative Hofer diameter of X in M. Its first part states that for the unit sphere in \({\mathbb{R}^{2n}}\) this diameter is bounded below by \({\frac{\pi}{2}}\) , if n ≥ 2. Its second part states that for n ≥ 2 and d ≥ n there exists a compact subset X of the closed unit ball in \({\mathbb{R}^{2n}}\), such that X has Hausdorff dimension at most d + 1 and relative Hofer diameter bounded below by π / k(n, d), where k(n, d) is an explicitly defined integer.

  • coisotropic displacement and small subsets of a Symplectic Manifold
    Mathematische Zeitschrift, 2012
    Co-Authors: Jan Swoboda, Fabian Ziltener
    Abstract:

    We prove a coisotropic intersection result and deduce the following: (a) Lower bounds on the displacement energy of a subset of a Symplectic Manifold, in particular a sharp stable energy-Gromov-width inequality. (b) A stable non-squeezing result for neighborhoods of products of unit spheres. (c) Existence of a “badly squeezable” set in \({\mathbb R^{2n}}\) of Hausdorff dimension at most d, for every n ≥ 2 and d ≥ n. (d) Existence of a stably exotic Symplectic form on \({\mathbb R^{2n}}\) , for every n ≥ 2. (e) Non-triviality of a new capacity, which is based on the minimal action of a regular coisotropic subManifold of dimension d.

  • hofer geometry of a subset of a Symplectic Manifold
    arXiv: Symplectic Geometry, 2011
    Co-Authors: Jan Swoboda, Fabian Ziltener
    Abstract:

    To every closed subset $X$ of a Symplectic Manifold $(M,\omega)$ we associate a natural group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms $Ham(X,\omega)$. We equip this group with a semi-norm $\Vert\cdot\Vert^{X,\omega}$, generalizing the Hofer norm. We discuss $Ham(X,\omega)$ and $\Vert\cdot\Vert^{X,\omega}$ if $X$ is a Symplectic or isotropic subManifold. The main result involves the relative Hofer diameter of $X$ in $M$. Its first part states that for the unit sphere in $R^{2n}$ this diameter is bounded below by $\frac\pi2$, if $n\geq2$. Its second part states that for $n\geq2$ and $d\geq n+1$ there exists a compact set in $R^{2n}$ of Hausdorff dimension at most $d$, with relative Hofer diameter bounded below by $\pi/k(n,d)$, where $k(n,d)$ is an explicitly defined integer.

  • Spectral flexibility of Symplectic Manifolds T ^2 × M
    Mathematische Annalen, 2008
    Co-Authors: Dan Mangoubi
    Abstract:

    We consider Riemannian metrics compatible with the natural Symplectic structure on T ^2 × M , where T ^2 is a Symplectic 2-torus and M is a closed Symplectic Manifold. To each such metric we attach the corresponding Laplacian and consider its first positive eigenvalue λ_1. We show that λ_1 can be made arbitrarily large by deforming the metric structure, keeping the Symplectic structure fixed. The conjecture is that the same is true for any Symplectic Manifold of dimension  ≥ 4. We reduce the general conjecture to a purely Symplectic question.

  • a spectral sequence associated with a Symplectic Manifold
    Doklady Mathematics, 2007
    Co-Authors: A M Vinogradov, C Di Pietro
    Abstract:

    With a Symplectic Manifold a spectral sequence converging to its de Rham cohomology is associated. A method of computation of its terms is presented together with some stabilization results. As an application a characterization of Symplectic harmonic Manifolds is given and a relationship with the C–spectral sequence is indicated. Let (M,Ω) be a 2n–dimensional Symplectic Manifold and Λ(M) be the algebra of differential forms onM . Consider the ideal ΛL(M) of Λ(M), composed of all differential forms that vanish when restricted to any Lagrangian subManifold of M . This ideal is differentially closed and its powers constitute the Symplectic filtration in the de Rham complex of M. The corresponding spectral sequence {Ep,q r , d r } is called the Symplectic spectral sequence associated with (M,Ω). A motivation for this construction comes from the theory of C–spectral sequences (see [5]). Moreover, if M = T ∗N , then the Symplectic spectral sequence is nothing but the “classical part” of the C–spectral sequence associated with the differential equation dρ = 0, ρ ∈ Λ(N). 1. Notations and preliminaries In this section the notation is fixed and all necessary facts concerning Symplectic Manifolds (see [1, 2, 6] for further details) are collected. Throughout the paper (M,Ω) stands for a 2n–dimensional Symplectic Manifold , Λ = ∑ k Λ k for the algebra of differential forms on M , H(M) = ∑ k H (M) for the de Rham cohomology of M and D = ∑ k Dk for the algebra of multivectors on M . The isomorphism Γ1 : V ∈ D1 → V Ω ∈ Λ of C∞(M)–modules extends uniquely to a C∞(M)–algebra isomorphism Γ: D → Λ. P = Γ−1(Ω) is called the corresponding to Ω Poisson bivector. C∞(M)–linear operators : Λ → Λ , ω = ω ∧ Ω, ⊥ : Λ → Λk−2 , ⊥ω = P ω, acting on Λ are basic for our purposes. Put Λ = im and Λ = ker⊥. Elements of Λ are called effective forms. Another very useful fact is the Hodge–Lepage expansion (see, for instance, [2]):
