Isn't the quantomorphism group really just the "WKB-quantomorphism" group?

Introduction In his second-most upvoted post, called "Why quantum mechanics?" (second only to his post on fibre bundles & gauge theory) in the physics SE community, Urs Schreiber, in the setting ...

Classification of Compact Symplectic Homogeneous Spaces

Let $M=G/H$ be a compact homogeneous space, $G$ a compact Lie Group and $H$ a closed subgroup. Is there some classification, akin to the Kaehler case, for which such manifolds admit a symplectic ...

Examples of non-equivariant momentum maps

What are examples of non-equivariant momentum maps? Off the top of my hat, I know about the following examples: the action of translations of a symplectic vector space (yielding the Heisenberg group ...

The homotopy type of the space of symplectic structures

While reading the book Introduction to the $h$-Principle by Y. Eliashberg and N. Mishachev, I noticed that the authors state, at the end of section 9.1.A, that the space of all symplectic structures ...

Quotients of Kähler manifolds

Let $X$ be a Kähler manifold and $G$ a complex semisimple Lie group acting freely on $X$ by biholomorphisms and such that the Riemannian metric is preserved by a maximal compact subgroup $K$ of $G$. ...

Symplectic principal bundles

A symplectic principal bundle is a principal bundle $(X,B, G)$ with projection map $q:X\to B$ such that $X$ and $B$ are symplectic manifolds and the right action of $G$ preserves the symplectic ...

Complex symplectic reduction

Oddly I find about zero resources talking about "complex symplectic reduction" upon a web search. Is there anything wrong with it? I guess maybe there are two competing settings a priori: a complex ...

Moment map of $\mathrm{O}(n)$-action on $\mathbb{C}^n$

Let $(\mathbb{C}^n, \omega_0)$ be the complex Euclidean space of dimension $n$ with the standard Kähler structure $\omega_0$. I am looking for a Hamiltonian $\mathrm{O}(n)$-action on $(\mathbb{C}^n, \...

Possible to express the coadjoint orbits in terms of Kahler reduction?

I have heard for many times that the coadjoint orbits of a compact semi-simple Lie group are Kahler. While I know that the symplectic structure on a coadjoint orbit can be given by the symplectic ...

Quotient space of Grassmannian

The Grassmannian $G(k,2k)$ is equipped with a nice $\mathbb Z_2$ action with respect to a non-degenerate symplectic bilinear form: $1.V=V^{perp}$. Is there a reference where the ring of polynomial ...

Relation between weight spaces of fixed loci of Hamiltonian $S^1$-actions

Consider an almost Kähler manifold $(M,\omega,I)$ with a $I$-(pseudo)holomorphic $\mathbb{C}^*$-action, whose $S^1$-part is Hamiltonian and the fixed locus $F=M^{S^1}$ is compact. Then, it breaks $F=\...

Explicit formula for hermitian form on coadjoint orbit of $G$ on $\mathfrak{g}^*$

Let $G$ be a compact Lie group and $\mathfrak{g}$ be its Lie algebra and $\mathfrak{g}^*$ be its dual , then I am looking for explicit formula for hermitian form on coadjoint orbit of $G$ on $\...
