Comparing Absolute and relative Gromov--Witten invariants
Dusa McDuff
This note compares the usual (absolute) Gromov-Witten invariants of a symplectic manifold with the invariants that count the curves relative to a (symplectic) divisor D. We give ex…
Some 6-dimensional Hamiltonian S^1 manifolds
Dusa McDuff
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 disj…
Polytopes with mass linear functions, part I
Dusa McDuff, Susan Tolman
We analyze mass linear functions on simple polytopes $\De$, where a mass linear function is an affine function on $\De$ whose value on the center of mass depends linearly on th…
Symplectic embeddings of 4-dimensional ellipsoids
Dusa McDuff
We show how to reduce the problem of symplectically embedding one 4-dimensional rational ellipsoid into another to a problem of embedding disjoint unions of balls into appropriate…
Monodromy in Hamiltonian Floer theory
Dusa McDuff
Schwarz showed that when a closed symplectic manifold (M,\om) is symplectically aspherical (i.e. the symplectic form and the first Chern class vanish on π_2(M)) then the spectral i…
