چکیده

After observing that the well-known convexity theorems of symplectic geometry also hold for compact contact manifolds we use this fact together with a recent symplectic orbifold version of Delzant’s theorem due to Lerman and Tolman [LT] to show that every compact toric contact manifold can be obtained by a contact reduction from an odd dimensional sphere.

Completely Integrable Contact Hamiltonian Systems and Toric Contact Structures on S × S

I begin by giving a general discussion of completely integrable Hamiltonian systems in the setting of contact geometry. We then pass to the particular case of toric contact structures on the manifold S2×S3. In particular we give a complete solution to the contact equivalence problem for a class of toric contact structures, Y , discovered by physicists in [GMSW04a, MS05, MS06] by showing that Y ...

Lectures on complex geometry, Calabi–Yau manifolds and toric geometry

These are introductory lecture notes on complex geometry, Calabi–Yau manifolds and toric geometry. We first define basic concepts of complex and Kähler geometry. We then proceed with an analysis of various definitions of Calabi–Yau manifolds. The last section provides a short introduction to toric geometry, aimed at constructing Calabi–Yau manifolds in two different ways; as hypersurfaces in to...

Geodesic flows and contact toric manifolds

Forward These notes are based on five 1.5 hour lectures on torus actions on contact mani-folds delivered at the summer school on Symplectic Geometry of Integrable Hamil-tonian Systems at Centre de Recerca Matemàtica in Barcelona in July 2001. Naturally the notes contain more material that could have been delivered in 7.5 hours. I am grateful to Carlos Curràs-Bosch and Eva Miranda, the organizer...
