Cohomologies and Elliptic Operators on Symplectic Manifolds

چکیده
In joint work with S.-T. Yau, we construct new cohomologies of differential forms and elliptic operators on symplectic manifolds. Their construction can be described simply following a symplectic decomposition of the exterior derivative operator into two first-order differential operators, which are analogous to the Dolbeault operators in complex geometry. These first-order operators lead to new cohomologies which are finite-dimensional and associated elliptic operators that exhibit Hodge theoretical properties. The symplectic cohomologies give new invariants for non-Kähler symplectic manifolds. This article is an expanded version of the talk given at ICCM 2010, Beijing, where new results from joint work with S.-T. Yau [18, 19, 20] were reported concerning cohomologies on closed symplectic manifolds.

On Monodromies of a Degeneration of Irreducible Symplectic Kähler Manifolds
We study the monodromy operators on the Betti cohomologies associated to a good degeneration of irreducible symplectic manifold and we show that the unipotency of the monodromy operator on the middle cohomology is at least the half of the dimension. This implies that the “mildest” singular fiber of a good degeneration with non-trivial monodromy of irreducible symplectic manifolds is quite diffe...
متن کاملHodge Theory and Symplectic Boundary Conditions
We study symplectic Laplacians on compact symplectic manifolds with boundary. These Laplacians are associated with symplectic cohomologies of differential forms and can be of fourth-order. We introduce several natural boundary conditions on differential forms and use them to establish Hodge theory by proving various form decomposition and also isomorphisms between the symplectic cohomologies an...
متن کاملSymplectic cohomologies on phase space
The phase space of a particle or a mechanical system contains an intrinsic symplectic structure, and hence, it is a symplectic manifold. Recently, new invariants for symplectic manifolds in terms of cohomologies of differential forms have been introduced by Tseng and Yau. Here, we discuss the physical motivation behind the new symplectic invariants and analyze these invariants for phase space, ...
متن کاملVirtual moduli cycles and Gromov-Witten invariants of general symplectic manifolds
In this paper, we first give an intersection theory for moduli problems for nonlinear elliptic operators with certain precompact space of solutions in differential geometry. Then we apply the theory to constructing Gromov-Witten invariants for general symplectic manifolds.
متن کاملCohomology and Hodge Theory on Symplectic Manifolds: I
We introduce new finite-dimensional cohomologies on symplectic manifolds. Each exhibits Lefschetz decomposition and contains a unique harmonic representative within each class. Associated with each cohomology is a primitive cohomology defined purely on the space of primitive forms. We identify the dual currents of lagrangians and more generally coisotropic submanifolds with elements of a primit...
