    Basic Kirwan injectivity and its applications

    Full text link
    Consider the Hamiltonian action of a torus on a transversely symplectic foliation that is also Riemannian. When the transverse hard Lefschetz property is satisfied, we establish a foliated version of the Kirwan injectivity theorem, and use it to study Hamiltonian torus actions on transversely K\"ahler foliations. Among other things, we prove a foliated version of the Carrell-Liberman theorem. As an immediate consequence, this confirms a conjecture raised by Battaglia and Zaffran on the basic Hodge numbers of symplectic toric quasifolds. As an aside, we also present a symplectic approach to the calculation of basic Betti numbers of symplectic toric quasifolds.Comment: 18 pages, comments welcom

    The convexity package for Hamiltonian actions on conformal symplectic manifolds

    Full text link
    Consider a Hamiltonian action of a compact connected Lie group on a conformal symplectic manifold. We prove a convexity theorem for the moment map under the assumption that the action is of Lee type, which establishes an analog of Kirwan's convexity theorem in conformal symplectic geometry.Comment: 31 pages, 1 figure. Appendix on conformal presymplectic manifolds added. Minor mistakes correcte

    Symplectic structures on stratified pseudomanifolds

    Full text link
    The purpose of this paper is to investigate the definition of symplectic structure on a smooth stratified pseudomanifold in the framework of local \C^{\infty}-ringed space theory. We introduce a sheaf-theoretic definition of symplectic form and cohomologically symplectic structure on smooth stratified pseudomanifolds. In particular, we give an indirect definition of symplectic form on the quotient space of a smooth GG-stratified pseudomanifold. Based on the structure theorem of singular symplectic quotients by Sjamaar--Lerman, we show that the singular reduced space M0=μ−1(0)/GM_{0}=\mu^{-1}(0)/G of a symplectic Hamiltonian GG-manifold (M,ω,G,μ)(M,\omega,G,\mu) admits a natural (indirect) symplectic form and a unique cohomologically symplectic structure.Comment: The local potentials of the induced Kahler metric on the Kahler quotient are continuous in general. This was overlooked in the proof of Theorem 1 in version2. The definition is corrected. Comments are welcome, 40 page
