Dec 26, 2016 at 13:03 comment added Danny Ruberman If $M^k$ is closed, then the integral of $(f^*\omega)^k$ is zero. But $(g\alpha)^k$ is a volume form, so its integral is positive. So I don't think that version works either.
Dec 26, 2016 at 12:52 comment added Ali Taghavi @DannyRuberman What about the following weaker version: For every symplectic manifold $(M, \alpha)$ there is an embedding $f: M \to \mathbb{R}^{2n}, \omega=\sum dx_{i} \wedge dy_{i}$ such that $f*{w}= g\alpha$ for a positive smooth fumction $g$?

Feb 1, 2016 at 2:56 comment added user21574 If $M$ be a Kahler manifold with $c_1(M)>0$, then you can embed $M$ in $\mathbb CP^N$
Jan 31, 2016 at 22:28 comment added Danny Ruberman Well, it depends on what you're trying to accomplish by this embedding. I believe that one can approximate an arbitrary form by one with rational periods (integrals over a basis of homology classes) and then take a multiple of the form to make it integral.
Jan 31, 2016 at 21:11 comment added Alex M. Apparently, for those embedding results one needs $\omega$ to be integral. I cannot visualize this, so I cannot tell how restrictive this is.
