The spectacular rigidity phenomena for symplectic mappings discovered in the last two decades show that certain things \u003cem\u003ecannot\u003c\/em\u003e be done by a symplectic mapping. For instance, Gromov's famous \"non-squeezing'' theorem states that one cannot map a ball into a thinner cylinder by a symplectic embedding. The aim of this book is to show that certain other things \u003cem\u003ecan \u003c\/em\u003e be done by symplectic mappings. This is achieved by various elementary and explicit symplectic embedding constructions, such as \"folding\", \"wrapping'', and \"lifting''. These constructions are carried out in detail and are used to solve some specific symplectic embedding problems. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe exposition is self-contained and addressed to students and researchers interested in geometry or dynamics.\u003c\/p\u003e  ","brand":"Felix Schlenk","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48260791566587,"sku":"9783110178760","price":360.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0779\/3917\/9771\/files\/CoreSourceHub_69e01f45-3344-4978-a034-001aa16c2330.jpg?v=1778451093","url":"https:\/\/indiepubs.com\/products\/embedding-problems-in-symplectic-geometry-9783110178760","provider":"IndiePubs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
