The writer believes this to be a case of congenital miosis of varying degree in the two eyes, and due probably, having regard to the findings of Holth and Berner, to developmental faults in the dilator mus...

We prove that if an (n − 1)-dimensional torus acts symplectically on a 2n-dimensional symplectic manifold, then the action has a fixed point if and only if the action is Hamiltonian. One may regard it as a symplectic version of Frankel’s theorem which says that a Kähler circle action has a fixed point if and only if it is Hamiltonian. The case of n = 2 is the well known theorem by McDuff.
