Gelfand–Cetlin abelianizations of symplectic quotients

P Crooks, J Weitsman - Pacific Journal of Mathematics, 2024 - msp.org
We show that generic symplectic quotients of a Hamiltonian G-space M by the action of a
compact connected Lie group G are also symplectic quotients of the same manifold M by a …

Abelianization and the Duistermaat–Heckman theorem

P Crooks, J Weitsman - Bulletin of the London Mathematical …, 2023 - Wiley Online Library
We use the abelianization theorem of Crooks and Weitsman (2022) to prove a non‐abelian
generalization of the Duistermaat–Heckman theorem for measures. Our main technical tools …

[HTML][HTML] Action-angle coordinates on coadjoint orbits and multiplicity free spaces from partial tropicalization

A Alekseev, B Hoffman, J Lane, Y Li - Advances in Mathematics, 2023 - Elsevier
Coadjoint orbits and multiplicity free spaces of compact Lie groups are important examples
of symplectic manifolds with Hamiltonian groups actions. Constructing action-angle …

The double Gelfand–Cetlin system, invariance of polarization, and the Peter–Weyl theorem

P Crooks, J Weitsman - Journal of Geometry and Physics, 2023 - Elsevier
The bundle map T⁎ U (n)⟶ U (n) provides a real polarization of the cotangent bundle T⁎ U
(n), and yields the geometric quantization Q 1 (T⁎ U (n))= L 2 (U (n)). We use the Gelfand …

The Gromov Width of Bott-Samelson Varieties

NC Bonala, S Cupit-Foutou - Transformation Groups, 2024 - Springer
We prove that the Gromov width of any Bott-Samelson variety associated to a reduced
expression and equipped with a rational Kähler form equals the symplectic area of a …

Canonical domains for coadjoint orbits

D Martínez Torres - Journal of the London Mathematical …, 2023 - Wiley Online Library
This paper describes two real analytic symplectomorphisms defined on appropriate dense
open subsets of any coadjoint orbit of a compact semisimple Lie algebra. The first …
