Symplectic maps and hyperKähler moment map geometry

Published 6 Oct 2021 in math.SG and math.DG | (2110.02679v2)

Abstract: We obtain a correspondence between the group of symplectic diffeomorphisms of a 4-dimensional real torus and the vanishing locus of a certain hyperK\"ahler moment map. This observation gives rise to a new flow, called the modified moment map flow. The construction can be adapted to the polyhedral setting, for which we prove a Duistermaat type theorem. This paper lays out the ground work for some effective polyhedral symplectic geometry and for a potential Morse-Bott theory, with applications to the topology of the space of symplectic maps of the 4-torus.
