Embedding Problems in Symplectic Geometry
Symplectic geometry is the geometry underlying Hamiltonian dynamics, and symplectic mappings arise as time-1-maps of Hamiltonian flows. The spectacular rigidity phenomena for symplectic mappings discovered in the last two decades show that certain things cannot be done by a symplectic mapping. For instance, Gromov''s famous "non-squeezing'''' theorem states that one cannot map a ball into a thinn...
