Overview
This is an extended second edition of The Topology of Torus Actions on Symplectic Manifolds published in this series in 1991. The material and references have been updated. Symplectic manifolds and torus actions are investigated, with numerous examples of torus actions, for instance on some moduli spaces. Although the book is still centered on convexity theorems, it contains more results, proofs and examples.Editorials

A textbook for a graduate course on simplectic geometry for students of topology or geometry. The topological treatment of Hamiltonian torus actions is innovative, and emphasizes such basic methods as classical low dimensional topology, Morse theory, and equivariant cohomology. Translated from the 1989 French edition. No index. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)Book Details
