چکیده

In this paper we show that any good toric contact manifold has well defined cylindrical contact homology and describe how it can be combinatorially computed from the associated moment cone. As an application we compute the cylindrical contact homology of a particularly nice family of examples that appear in the work of Gauntlett-Martelli-SparksWaldram on Sasaki-Einstein metrics. We show in particular that these give rise to a new infinite family of non-equivalent contact structures on S ×S in the unique homotopy class of almost contact structures with vanishing first Chern class.

Symplectic fillability of toric contact manifolds

According to Lerman, compact connected toric contact 3-manifolds with a non-free toric action whose moment cone spans an angle greater than π are overtwisted, thus non-fillable. In contrast, we show that all compact connected toric contact manifolds in dimension greater than three are weakly symplectically fillable and most of them are strongly symplectically fillable. The proof is based on the...

Contact toric manifolds

We complete the classification of compact connected contact toric manifolds initiated by Banyaga and Molino and by Galicki and Boyer. As an application we prove the conjectures of Toth and Zelditch on toric integrable systems on the n-torus and the 2-sphere.

3-manifolds Admitting Toric Integrable Geodesic Flows

A toric integrable geodesic flow on a manifold M is a completely integrable geodesic flow such that the integrals generate a homogeneous torus action on the punctured cotangent bundle T ∗M \ M . A toric integrable manifold is a manifold which has a toric integrable geodesic flow. Toric integrable manifolds can be characterized as those whose cosphere bundle (the sphere bundle in the cotangent b...

Simply Connected Manifolds with Infinitely Many Toric Contact Structures and Constant Scalar Curvature Sasaki Metrics

We study a class of simply connected manifolds in all odd dimensions greater than 3 that exhibit an infinite number of toric contact structures of Reeb type that are inequivalent as contact structures. We compute the cohomology ring of our manifolds by using the join construction for Sasaki manifolds and show that all such contact structures admit a ray of compatible Sasaki metrics of constant ...
