A remark on the stabilized symplectic embedding problem for ellipsoids
This note constructs sharp obstructions for stabilized symplectic embeddings of an ellipsoid into a ball, in the case when the initial four-dimensional ellipsoid has ‘eccentricity’ of the form
Symplectic capacities, unperturbed curves, and convex toric domains

Symplectic embeddings of products

McDuff and Schlenk determined when a four-dimensional ellipsoid can be symplectically embedded into a four-dimensional ball, and found that when the ellipsoid is close to round, the answer is given
Maximal symplectic packings in \${\mathbb {P}^2}\$
Abstract In this paper we describe the intersections between the balls of maximal symplectic packings of \$\mathbb {P}^2\$. This analysis shows the existence of singular points for maximal packings of

We give a construction of contact homology in the sense of Eliashberg–Givental–Hofer. Specifically, we construct coherent virtual fundamental cycles on the relevant compactified moduli spaces of
New obstructions to symplectic embeddings

In this paper we establish new restrictions on the symplectic embeddings of basic shapes in symplectic vector spaces. By refining an embedding technique due to Guth, we also show that they are sharp.

This is one in a series of papers devoted to the foundations of Symplectic Field Theory sketched in (4). We prove compactness results for moduli spaces of holomorphic curves arising in Symplectic
Automatic transversality and orbifolds of punctured holomorphic curves in dimension four
We derive a numerical criterion for J-holomorphic curves in 4-dimensional symplectic cobordisms to achieve transversality without any genericity assumption. This generalizes results of
The embedding capacity of 4-dimensional symplectic ellipsoids
• Mathematics
• 2009
This paper calculates the function \$c(a)\$ whose value at \$a\$ is the infimum of the size of a ball that contains a symplectic image of the ellipsoid \$E(1,a)\$. (Here \$a \ge 1\$ is the ratio of the area
Introduction to Symplectic Field Theory

We sketch in this article a new theory, which we call Symplectic Field Theory or SFT, which provides an approach to Gromov-Witten invariants of symplectic manifolds and their Lagrangian submanifolds
Fredholm theory and transversality for noncompact pseudoholomorphic mapsin symplectizations
We study pseudoholomorphic maps from a punctured Riemann surface into the symplectization of a contact manifold. A Fredholm theory yields the virtual dimension of the moduli spaces of such maps in
