Hofer-Zehnder capacity and a Hamiltonian circle action with noncontractible orbits (JAPANESE)
[ Abstract ]
Hofer-Zehnder (HZ) capacity is an invariant of symplectic manifolds, which is important in symplectic topology and Hamiltonian dynamics. The energy-capacity inequality (due to Hofer and many others) claims that HZ capacity of a domain is bounded from above by its dispalcement energy.
In this talk, we prove a variant of this inequality, which is applicable to nondisplaceable domains. We also give some applications, including case of disc cotangent bundles.
