Title:
The h-principle in symplectic geometry
Speaker:
Abstract:
Symplectic geometry, and its close relative contact geometry, are geometries closely tied to complex geometry, smooth topology, and mathematical physics. The h-principle is a general method used for construction of smooth geometric objects satisfying various underdetermined properties. In the symplectic context, h-principles typically give constructions of surprising exotica, and methods for detecting the basic flexible objects. We survey a number of results from the previous decade.
