Classifies almost-toric systems in four dimensions.

Study fiber-preserving, orientation-reversing involutions on Seifert fibered 3-manifolds.

In a paper published in 2002, the author gave a criterion to determine whether there is a fiber-preserving branched covering between two given orientable Seifert manifolds with orientable bases. Here we supply some details of the proof of two claims in that paper. We give an explicit construction of fiber-preserving br…

The study identifies exceptions to fiber-preserving symmetry in ODEs and systems.

Paper solves equivalence problems for fifth-order differential operators using Cartan's method.

This article is dedicated to solve the equivalence problem for two third order differential operators on the line under general fiber--preserving transformation using the Cartan method of equivalence. We will do three versions of the equivalence problems: first via the direct equivalence problem, second equivalence pro…

In present paper, the equivalence problem for fourth order differential operators with one variable under general fiber-preserving transformation using the Cartan method of equivalence is applied. Two versions of equivalence problems are considered. First, the direct equivalence problem and second equivalence problem i…

Around 1960, R. Palais and J. Cerf proved a fundamental result relating spaces of diffeomorphisms and imbeddings of manifolds: If V is a submanifold of M, then the map from Diff(M) to Imb(V,M) that takes f to its restriction to V is locally trivial. We extend this and related results into the context of fibered manifol…

Maps between circle bundles are studied, proving fiber-preserving and finiteness results for mapping degrees.

We introduce the notion of a local torus action modeled on the standard representation (for simplicity, we call it a local torus action). It is a generalization of a locally standard torus action and also an underlying structure of a locally toric Lagrangian fibration. For a local torus action, we define two invariants…

In two previous papers the author presented a general construction of finite, fiber- and orientation-preserving group actions on orientable Seifert manifolds. In this paper we restrict our attention to elliptic 3-manifolds. A proof is given that orientation-reversing and fiber-preserving diffeomorphisms of Seifert mani…

The paper extends symplectomorphism quasi-morphisms to the entire disk group.

We construct a family of split signature Einstein metrics in four dimensions, corresponding to particular classes of third order ODEs considered modulo fiber preserving transformations of variables.

This paper is devoted to apply the equivariant moving frame method to study the local equivalence problem of third order ordinarily differential equation under the pseudo-group of fiber preserving transformations.

We apply the mean curvature flow to deform symplectomorphisms of $\mathbb{CP}^n$. In particular, we prove that, for each dimension n, there exists a constant $Λ$, explicitly computable, such that any $Λ$-pinched symplectomorphism of $\mathbb{CP}^n$ is symplectically isotopic to a biholomorphic isometry.

New result on symplectomorphisms on surfaces, showing vanishing cup product of fluxes.

In this paper we apply Donaldson's general moment map framework for the action of a symplectomorphism group on the corresponding space of compatible (almost) complex structures to the case of rational ruled surfaces. This gives a new approach to understanding the topology of their symplectomorphism groups, based on a r…

We prove that the group of compactly supported symplectomorphisms of the standard symplectic ball admits a continuum of linearly independent real-valued homogeneous quasimorphisms. In addition these quasimorphisms are Lipschitz in the Hofer metric and have the following property: the value of each such quasimorphism on…

We show that, for certain families $φ_{\mathbf{s}}$ of diffeomorphisms of high-dimensional spheres, the commutator of the Dehn twist along the zero-section of $T^*S^n$ with the family of pullbacks $φ^*_{\mathbf{s}}$ gives a noncontractible family of compactly-supported symplectomorphisms. In particular, we find example…

We prove the existence of infinitely many periodic points of symplectomorphisms isotopic to the identity if they admit at least one (non-contractible) hyperbolic periodic orbit and satisfy some condition on its flux. The obtained periodic points correspond to periodic orbits whose free homotopy classes are formed by it…

We count the conjugacy classes of maximal tori in the groups of symplectomorphisms of S^2 \times S^2 and of the blow-up of CP^2 at a point.

This paper describes two real analytic symplectomorphisms defined on appropriate dense open subsets of any coadjoint orbit of a compact semisimple Lie algebra. The first symplectomorphism sends the open dense subset to a bounded subset of a standard cotangent bundle. The second symplectomorphism has target a bounded su…

Study of symplectomorphisms on ruled surfaces under circle actions.

We construct some canonically defined central extensions of groups of symplectomorphisms. We show that this central extension is nontrivial in the case of a torus of dimension $\ge 6$ and in the case of a two-dimensional surface of genus $\ge 3$.

With the aid of the theory of Jordan triple systems, we construct an explicit bi-symplectomorphism between a Hermitian symmetric space of non-compact type and $\C^n$ equipped with both the flat Kaehler-form and the Fubini-Study form. Our symplectomorphism is an explicit version of the symplectomorphism between Kaehler …

On groups of symplectomorphisms of the disk, we construct two homogeneous quasi-morphisms which relate to the Calabi invariant and the flux homomorphism respectively. We also show the relation between the quasi-morphisms and the translation number introduced by Poincaré.

Theorems adapted for prequantum systems, showing symplectomorphism and gauge transformation.

The paper classifies symplectic forms on R^4 and determines invariants under symplectomorphisms.

Each element of the commutator subgroup of a group can be represented as a product of commutators. The minimal number of factors in such a product is called the commutator length of the element. The commutator length of a group is defined as the supremum of commutator lengths of elements of its commutator subgroup. We …

We show, using standard results in length spectrum rigidity and symplectic homology, that if the unit tangent bundles of two compact surfaces of negative curvature are exact symplectomorphic, then the underlying surfaces are isometric, and hence the disk bundles are symplectomorphic smoothly up to the boundaries. Motiv…

This paper classifies symplectic structures on $A_k$ singularities.

We prove that any noncompact symplectic manifold which admits a properly embedded ray with a wide neighborhood is symplectomorphic to the complement of the ray by constructing an explicit symplectomorphism in the case of the standard Euclidean space. We use this excision trick to construct a nowhere vanishing Liouville…

The main theme of this paper is to study for a symplectomorphism of a compact surface, the asymptotic invariant which is defined to be the growth rate of the sequence of the total dimensions of symplectic Floer homologies of the iterates of the symplectomorphism. We prove that the asymptotic invariant coincides with as…

A classical result of D. McDuff asserts that a simply-connected complete Kaehler manifold $(M,g,ω)$ with non positive sectional curvature admits global symplectic coordinates through a symplectomorphism $Ψ: M\rightarrow R^{2n}$ (where $n$ is the complex dimension of $M$), satisfying the following property (proved by E.…

Classifies symplectic torus actions up to equivariant symplectomorphism.

Study local equivalence of Riemannian submersions using differential invariants.

This study proves the local existence of a symplectic gradient flow on a flat torus.

Banyaga has shown that the group of symplectomorphisms Symp(N) of a compact symplectic manifold (N,w) determines the symplectic structure. This motivates the study of the homotopy properties of Symp(N). Gromov has shown that the group of symplectomorphisms of N is homotopic to SO(3)\times SO(3) when N is the product of…

This paper is concerned with the rational symplectic field theory in the Floer case. For this observe that in the general geometric setup for symplectic field theory the contact manifolds can be replaced by mapping tori of symplectic manifolds with symplectomorphisms. While the cylindrical contact homology is given by …

Symplectic manifold rays can be removed without changing the manifold's structure.

In this paper, we prove homological stability of symplectomorphisms and extended hamiltonians of surfaces made discrete. We construct an isomorphism from the stable homology group of symplectomorphisms and extended Hamiltonians of surfaces to the homology of certain infinite loop spaces. We use these infinite loop spac…

The symplectic Floer homology HF_*(f) of a symplectomorphism f:S->S encodes data about the fixed points of f using counts of holomorphic cylinders in R x M_f, where M_f is the mapping torus of f. We give an algorithm to compute HF_*(f) for f a surface symplectomorphism in a pseudo-Anosov or reducible mapping class, com…

In an earlier paper we explained how to convert the problem of symplectically embedding one 4-dimensional ellipsoid into another into the problem of embedding a certain set of disjoint balls into \CP^2 by using a new way to desingularize orbifold blow ups Z of the weighted projective space \CP^2_{1,m,n}. We now use a r…

Proves local maximizers for higher Ekeland-Hofer capacities in 4D star-shaped domains.

The Gromov-Eliashberg theorem says that the group of symplectomorphisms of a symplectic manifold is C^0-closed in the group of diffeomorphisms. This can be translated into a statement about the Lagrangian submanifolds which are graphs of symplectomorphisms. It is also known that such Lagrangian submanifolds are locally…

Making use of the extended flux homomorphism on the group of symplectomorphisms of a closed oriented surface of genus at least 2, we introduce new characteristic classes of foliated surface bundles with symplectic, equivalently area-preserving, total holonomy. These characteristic classes are stable with respect to the…

The Nielsen Conjecture for Homeomorphisms asserts that any homeomorphism $f$ of a closed manifold is isotopic to a map realizing the Nielsen number of $f$, which is a lower bound for the number of fixed points among all maps homotopic to $f$. The main theorem of this paper proves this conjecture for all orientation pre…
