Corpus analysis for Symplectic
- In this selection, "symplectic" usually appears near the start of the sentence. The average example has 24.2 words, and this corpus slice is mostly made up of statements.
- Around the word, almost, product, manifold, form and geometry stand out and add context to how "symplectic" is used.
- Recognizable usage signals include 2 a symplectic manifold is and an almost symplectic manifold is. That gives this page its own corpus information beyond isolated example sentences.
- By corpus frequency, "symplectic" sits close to words such as aaronson, abai and abass, which helps place it inside the broader word index.

Ben Webster: What is a symplectic manifold, really? (8 words)
Differential topology Differential topology is the study of (global) geometric invariants without a metric or symplectic form. (17 words)
It is close to symplectic geometry and like the latter, it originated in questions of classical mechanics. (17 words)
The introduction of a Riemannian metric or a symplectic form gives rise to a natural isomorphism between the tangent space and the cotangent space at a point, associating to any tangent covector a canonical tangent vector. (36 words)
An almost symplectic manifold is a differentiable manifold equipped with a smoothly varying non-degenerate skew-symmetric bilinear form on each tangent space, i.e., a nondegenerate 2- form ω, called the symplectic form. (34 words)
The quantization is simply where is the Lie derivative of a half-form with respect to a vector field X. Geometric quantization of Poisson manifolds and symplectic foliations also is developed. (31 words)

Example sentences (14)
An almost symplectic manifold is a differentiable manifold equipped with a smoothly varying non-degenerate skew-symmetric bilinear form on each tangent space, i.e., a nondegenerate 2- form ω, called the symplectic form.
The definition of a symplectic manifold requires that the symplectic form be non-degenerate everywhere, but if this condition is violated, the manifold may still be a Poisson manifold.
The only invariants of a symplectic manifold are global in nature and topological aspects play a prominent role in symplectic geometry.
Ben Webster: What is a symplectic manifold, really?
By contrast with Riemannian geometry, where the curvature provides a local invariant of Riemannian manifolds, Darboux's theorem states that all symplectic manifolds are locally isomorphic.
Differential topology Differential topology is the study of (global) geometric invariants without a metric or symplectic form.
Great Russian Encyclopedia (2005), Moscow : Bol'shaya Rossiyskaya Enciklopediya Publisher, vol. 2. Arnold can be said to have initiated the theory of symplectic topology as a distinct discipline.
In dimension 2, a symplectic manifold is just a surface endowed with an area form and a symplectomorphism is an area-preserving diffeomorphism.
It is close to symplectic geometry and like the latter, it originated in questions of classical mechanics.
Lagrangian mapping Let L be a Lagrangian submanifold of a symplectic manifold (K,ω) given by an immersion i : L ↪ K (i is called a Lagrangian immersion).
Non-degenerate skew-symmetric bilinear forms can only exist on even-dimensional vector spaces, so symplectic manifolds necessarily have even dimension.
One major example is that the graph of a symplectomorphism in the product symplectic manifold (M M, ω ω) is Lagrangian.
The introduction of a Riemannian metric or a symplectic form gives rise to a natural isomorphism between the tangent space and the cotangent space at a point, associating to any tangent covector a canonical tangent vector.
The quantization is simply where is the Lie derivative of a half-form with respect to a vector field X. Geometric quantization of Poisson manifolds and symplectic foliations also is developed.
