Coisotropic Submanifolds, Leafwise Fixed Points, and Presymplectic Embeddings

preprint2009arXivOpen access

Abstract

Let (M,ω)(M,ω) be a geometrically bounded symplectic manifold, N⊆MN\subseteq M a closed, regular (i.e. "fibering") coisotropic submanifold, and ϕ:M→Mϕ:M\to M a Hamiltonian diffeomorphism. The main result of this article is that the number of leafwise fixed points of ϕϕ is bounded below by the sum of the Z2Z_2-Betti numbers of NN, provided that the Hofer distance between ϕϕ and the identity is small enough and the pair (N,ϕ)(N,ϕ) is non-degenerate. The bound is optimal if there exists a Z2Z_2-perfect Morse function on NN. A version of the Arnol'd-Givental conjecture for coisotropic submanifolds is also discussed. As an application, I prove a presymplectic non-embedding result.
