AbstractWe show that there is an hierarchy of intersection rigidity properties of sets in a closed symplectic manifold: some sets cannot be displaced by symplectomorphisms from more sets than the others. We also find new examples of rigidity of intersections involving, in particular, specific fibers of moment maps of Hamiltonian torus actions, monotone Lagrangian submanifolds (following the works of P. Albers and P. Biran-O. Cornea) as well as certain, possibly singular, sets defined in terms of Poisson-commutative subalgebras of smooth functions. In addition, we get some geometric obstructions to semi-simplicity of the quantum homology of symplectic manifolds. The proofs are based on the Floer-theoretical machinery of partial symplectic quasi-states.

We prove a convexity theorem for the image of the moment map of a Hamiltonian torus action on a b m -symplectic manifold. This article is part of the theme issue ‘Finite dimensional integrable systems: new trends and methods’.

In this paper, we introduce the notion of pseudoheaviness of closed subsets of closed symplectic manifolds and prove the existence of pseudoheavy fibers of moment maps. In particular, we generalize Entov and Polterovich’s theorem, which ensures the existence of non-displaceable fibers. As its application, we provide a partial answer to a problem posed by them, which asks the existence of heavy fibers. Moreover, we obtain a family of singular Lagrangian submanifolds in [Formula: see text] with various rigidities.

In this paper, we show the relationship between 2-form of the two projective tangent bundle and the relationship between 2-form on projective tangent bundle and 1-form on by using the theory of fiber bundle and the properties of symplectic manifold of the projective tangent bundle . Moreover, we derived a simpler formula of Lie derivative of a special vector field, which is on the projective tangent bundle.

We compare Hofer's geometries on two spaces associated with a closed symplectic manifold (M,ω). The first space is the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms. The second space ℒ consists of all Lagrangian submanifolds of M × M which are exact Lagrangian isotopic to the diagonal. We show that in the case of a closed symplectic manifold with π2(M) = 0, the canonical embedding of Ham (M) into ℒ, f ↦ graph (f) is not an isometric embedding, although it preserves Hofer's length of smooth paths.

AbstractAn R-space is a compact homogeneous space obtained as an orbit of the isotropy representation of a Riemannian symmetric space. It is known that each R-space has the canonical embedding into a Kähler C-space as a real form, and thus a compact embedded totally geodesic Lagrangian submanifold. The minimal Maslov number of Lagrangian submanifolds in symplectic manifolds is one of invariants under Hamiltonian isotopies and very fundamental to study the Floer homology for intersections of Lagrangian submanifolds. In this paper we show a Lie theoretic formula for the minimal Maslov number of R-spaces canonically embedded in Einstein-Kähler C-spaces, and provide some examples of the calculation by the formula.
