In a previous paper, the notion of Gibbs state for the Hamiltonian action of a Lie group on a symplectic manifold was given, together with its applications in Statistical Mechanics, and the works in this field of the French mathematician and physicist Jean-Marie Souriau were presented. Using an adaptation of the cross product for pseudo-Euclidean three-dimensional vector spaces, we present several examples of such Gibbs states, together with the associated thermodynamic functions, for various two-dimensional symplectic manifolds, including the pseudo-spheres, the Poincar{\'e} disk and the Poincar{\'e} half-plane.

The French mathematician and physicist Jean-Marie Souriau studied Gibbs states for the Hamiltonian action of a Lie group on a symplectic manifold and considered their possible applications in Physics and Cosmology. These Gibbs states are presented here with detailed proofs of all the stated results. A companion paper to appear will present examples of Gibbs states on various symplectic manifolds on which a Lie group of symmetries acts by a Hamiltonian action, including the Poincar\'e disk and the Poincaré half-plane.

This chapter examines various ways to construct symplectic manifolds and submanifolds. It begins by studying blowing up and down in both the complex and the symplectic contexts. The next section is devoted to a discussion of fibre connected sums and describes Gompf’s construction of symplectic four-manifolds with arbitrary fundamental group. The chapter also contains an exposition of Gromov’s telescope construction, which shows that for open manifolds the h-principle rules and the inclusion of the space of symplectic forms into the space of nondegenerate 2-forms is a homotopy equivalence. The final section outlines Donaldson’s construction of codimension two symplectic submanifolds and explains the associated decompositions of the ambient manifold.

A unified theory of phase transitions and quantum effects in quantum anharmonic crystals is presented. In its framework, the relationship between these two phenomena is analyzed. The theory is based on the representation of the model Gibbs states in terms of path measures (Euclidean Gibbs measures). It covers the case of crystals without translation invariance, as well as the case of asymmetric anharmonic potentials. The results obtained are compared with those known in the literature.

We study irreducible holomorphic symplectic manifolds deformation equivalent to Hilbert schemes of points on a $K3$ surface and admitting a non-symplectic involution. We classify the possible discriminant quadratic forms of the invariant and coinvariant lattice for the action of the involution on cohomology and explicitly describe the lattices in the cases where the invariant lattice has small rank. We also give a modular description of all $d$ -dimensional families of manifolds of $K3^{[n]}$ -type with a non-symplectic involution for $d\geqslant 19$ and $n\leqslant 5$ and provide examples arising as moduli spaces of twisted sheaves on a $K3$ surface.
