Local properties of J-complex curves in Lipschitz-continuous structures

We prove the existence of primitive curves and positivity of intersections of $J$-complex curves for Lipschitz-continuous almost complex structures. These results are deduced from the Comparison Theorem for $J$-holomorphic maps in Lipschitz structures, previously known for $J$ of class $C^{1, Lip}$. We also give the optimal regularity of curves in Lipschitz structures. It occurs to be $C^{1,LnLip}$, i.e. the first derivatives of a $J$-complex curve for Lipschitz $J$ are Log-Lipschitz-continuous. A simple example that nothing better can be achieved is given. Further we prove the Genus Formula for $J$-complex curves and determine their principal Puisieux exponents (all this for Lipschitz-continuous $J$-s).Comment: Minor corrections and improvements.

Regular homotopy of Hurwitz curves

We prove that any two irreducible cuspidal Hurwitz curves $C_0$ and $C_1$ (or more generally, curves with A-type singularities) in the Hirzebruch surface $F_N$ with coinciding homology classes and sets of singularities are regular homotopic; and symplectically regular homotopic if $C_0$ and $C_1$ are symplectic with respect to a compatible symplectic form.Comment: 26 page

Homology class of a Lagrangian Klein bottle

It is shown that an embedded Lagrangian Klein bottle represents a non-trivial mod 2 homology class in a compact symplectic four-manifold $(X,\omega)$ with $c_1(X)\cdot[\omega]>0$. (In versions 1 and 2, the last assumption was missing. A counterexample to this general claim and the first proof of the corrected result have been found by Vsevolod Shevchishin.) As a corollary one obtains that the Klein bottle does not admit a Lagrangian embedding into the standard symplectic four-space.Comment: Version 3 - completely rewritten to correct a mistake; Version 4 - minor edits, added references; AMSLaTeX, 6 page

Two-dimensional superintegrable metrics with one linear and one cubic integral

We describe all local Riemannian metrics on surfaces whose geodesic flows are superintegrable with one integral linear in momenta and one integral cubic in momenta. We also show that some of these metrics can be extended to the 2-sphere. This gives us new examples of Hamiltonian systems on the sphere with integrals of degree three in momenta, and the first examples of superintegrable metrics of nonconstant curvature on a closed surfaceComment: 35 page

Lagrangian Klein bottles in R^{2n}

It is shown that the n-dimensional Klein bottle admits a Lagrangian embedding into R^{2n} if and only if n is odd.Comment: V.2 - explicit formula for the Luttinger-type surgery; V.3 - section 3 corrected, section 6 expanded; 6 page

Intersections of quadrics, moment-angle manifolds, and Hamiltonian-minimal Lagrangian embeddings

We study the topology of Hamiltonian-minimal Lagrangian submanifolds N in C^m constructed from intersections of real quadrics in a work of the first author. This construction is linked via an embedding criterion to the well-known Delzant construction of Hamiltonian toric manifolds. We establish the following topological properties of N: every N embeds as a submanifold in the corresponding moment-angle manifold Z, and every N is the total space of two different fibrations, one over the torus T^{m-n} with fibre a real moment-angle manifold R, and another over a quotient of R by a finite group with fibre a torus. These properties are used to produce new examples of Hamiltonian-minimal Lagrangian submanifolds with quite complicated topology.Comment: 14 pages, published version (minor changes
