Is this entire function a square?

$f$ is an entire function of exponential type (that is, $|f(z)|\lesssim e^{C|z|}$), and this implies that there are other zeros, in addition to $z=0$: if not, then its Hadmard factorization would be ...

Kahler version of Darboux's Theorem

Let $(M,g,J)$ be a Kahler manifold. This means that $J$ is a (integrable) complex structure, so that $(M,J)$ is a complex manifold, $g$ is a smooth metric such that $J$ is $g$-orthogonal, i.e. $g(JX,...

When does a holomorphic symplectic manifold compactify to a Poisson manifold?

No, not even under the nicest possible algebraicity assumptions like quasiprojective. Let $Z$ be the product of two curves of genus $\geq 2$. Choose a nonzero $2$-form $\omega$ on $Z$, the wedge of a ...

Equivariant quantum cohomology of conical symplectic resolutions

First of all, I don't understand why you say that there are no holomorphic curves - a typical example of such a space is $T^*{\mathbb C}{\mathbb P}^1$ and it perfectly has non-trivial holomoprhic ...

The singularties of the dicriminant loci of the Lagrangian fibration

I am afraid not. As it is usual for discriminants, the singularities are rather complicated. Take for instance a K3 surface $S\subset \mathbb{P}^g$, with Picard group generated by $\mathcal{O}_S(1)$. ...

Finding the octonionic analog of the K3 surface, via (almost) hyperkahler geometry?

The following shows that such a manifold exists, but unfortunately it uses $bP_8 \cong \mathbb Z_{28}$. According to Corollary 5.5 of this article a highly connected $8$-manifold $M$ with $p_1(M)=0$ ...

Lagrangian cores of quiver variety in different GIT chambers

Any quiver variety where all the v_i are 1's is a hypertoric variety. They are determined combinatorially by an arrangement of affine hyperplanes and one can compute the core by looking at the compact ...

Deligne Mumford Compactification of Moduli Space Of Annuli

Irreducibility of holomorphic symplectic quotients

Work of Gan and Ginzburg (https://arxiv.org/pdf/math/0409262v7.pdf) shows that one of our favorite examples, $M=T^*(\mathfrak{gl}_n\oplus \mathbb C^n)$ and $G=GL(n)$, has a 0 level of the moment map ...

Bubbling off of a pseudo holomorphic sphere on surface with cylindrical ends

It turns out that the Removable Singularities Theorem and the Monotonicity Lemma do not require compactness, but that the target manifold should have bounded geometry, such as in our case of inserting ...

Is this entire function a square?

If $f$ has a double zero at a point $z$ then not only $z=\sin z$ there but also the derivatives must be the same, so that $1=\cos z$ there. Then $\sin^2z = 1-\cos^2 z =0$ and therefore $z=\sin z=0$, ...

Symplectic resolutions amongst cotangent bundles

I think @Joel is saying the following (this was too long for a comment, so I put it as an answer): Given a conical symplectic resolution $X\mathrel{:=}T^*M \rightarrow X^\text{aff}$ whose $\mathbb{C}^*...

Two Lagrangian submanifolds with clean intersections

Why symplectic geometry gives Poisson geometry

Look up sub-Riemannian geometry. This is a quite developed theory now, but here the Riemannian metric is defined only along a subbundle of the tangent bundle which is assumed to be completely non-...

What is the relation between holomorphic blow-up and symplectic blow-up?

In the case when you are blowing up a smooth submanifold this actually coincides with the symplectic blow-up (with the symplectic form forgotten). For simplicity, let's take the submanifold to be a ...

Core components of quiver varieties as fiber bundles of flag varieties

There is an example of an irreducible component, which is a blowup of $\mathbb P^2$ at a point. See Example 18 in https://arxiv.org/pdf/1611.10000.pdf.

Visualising the moduli space of stable disks with interior marked point and 4 marked point on the boundary

A generalization of this moduli space was used by Costello, in the paper https://arxiv.org/abs/math/0601130. In his terminology, your space is $D_{0,1,4,1} = \overline{\mathcal N}_{0,1,4,1}$. The ...

Disconnecting the Lagrangian Grassmannian

It looks as though $M_{K} := \Lambda(V) \setminus S_{K}$ is connected. Here is the way I can see it: First of all, we know that when $K$ is Lagrangian $M_{K}$ can be identified with $Sym^{2}(L^{\ast})$...
