I am looking for examples of (symplectic or not) 4-dimensional manifolds $X$ that have positive dimensional Seiberg-Witten moduli spaces (and $b^{2+}>1$). Of course, the result/conjecture is that the …

Moduli space of genus $0$ degree $d$ maps in a quintic Calabi-Yau threefold $X$, written as $\overline{\mathcal{M}}_{0,0}(X,[d])$, can be embedded in the corresponding moduli space of $\mathbb{P}^4$, …

In addition to the nice description of Jason in the comments, there is a fairly detailed description of the deformation long exact sequence in Section 3.2 of the article of Siebert-Tian in "Symplecti …

Let $f\!=\!(u\colon (\Sigma,p_1,\ldots,p_k) \to X)$ be an element of the moduli space of genus $g$ $k$-marked degree $A$ $J$-holomorphic maps $\mathcal{M}_{g,k}(X,A,J)$. For simplicity assume $C=(\Sig …

Atiyah-Guillemin-Sternberg theorem asserts that the image of the moment map $\mu$ for a Hamiltonian $(S^1)^m$-action on a smooth compact symplectic manifold $(M^{2n},\omega)$ is a convex polytope of $ …

The symplectic sum of Gompf and the symplectic cut of Lerman are known to be inverse of each other, in the sense that if you apply one of these first and the other one afterward, you obtain the origin …

Assume $(X,\omega)$ is a compact real $2n$-dimensional symplectic manifold with a Hamiltonian torus action corresponding to the moment map $\mu:X\to \mathfrak{t}^*\cong \mathbb{R}^k$. In this situati …

Let $(L,\omega_L) \to (M,\omega_M)$ be a symplectic line bundle (symplectic line=real dimension 2) over a symplectic manifold $M$. Each of these objects can be equipped with an almost complex structur …

In the past decade, theory of Kuranishi structures on moduli space of pseudo-holomorphic curves has been in the center of debates between some mathematicians in the field of symplectic geometry. Kenj …

If $(X,\omega)$ is a symplectic manifold and $J\colon TX \to TX$ is an almost complex structure, we know that $J$ is actually a complex structure if and only if the Nijenhuis tensor $N_J(\cdot,\cdot)$ …

Let $E\to C$ be a rank $2$, degree $2g-2$, holomorphic vector bundle over a curve of genus $g$. By Riemann-Roch theorem, $$H^0(E)-H^1(E)= \deg(E)+2.(1-g)=0. $$ Question: For which $g$, there is such …

Blow-ups of points can also be performed in the symplectic category; for a given point $p\in (X,\omega)$ we choose a Darboux chart around $p$ and then use the symplectic cut corresponding to the stand …

I am trying to gather a list of all known symplectic manifolds which don't have Kahler structure. If you know any please add to the list and give references for it. Please avoid giving repetitive exa …

I got this answer from Dusa McDuff (and she got it from some body else): Suppose given $f:[0,1]\to [0,1]$ such thqt 0 is repelling fixed point and 1 is attracting fixed point and there are no others. …

Let $\psi_t: X\to X$, $t \in [0,1]$, be a path Hamiltonian diffeomorphism on a symplectic manifold $X$, given by functions $H_t$. If $H_t \equiv H$ is independent of $t$ then $$ \psi_1 = \psi_{\frac …
