The convexity and Morse-theoretic properties of moment maps in symplectic geometry typically fail for presymplectic manifolds. We find a condition on presymplectic moment maps that prevents these failures. Our result applies for instance to Prato's quasifolds and to Hamiltonian actions on contact manifolds and cosymplectic manifolds.
In this paper, we extend the Atiyah--Guillemin--Sternberg convexity theorem and Delzant's classification of symplectic toric manifolds to presymplectic manifolds. We also define and study the Morita equivalence of presymplectic toric manifolds and of their corresponding framed momentum polytopes, which may be rational or non-rational. Toric orbifolds, quasifolds and non-commutative toric varieties may be viewed as the quotient of our presymplectic toric manifolds by the kernel isotropy foliation of the presymplectic form.

M. Brion证明了由Hamilton群作用的复化所保持的紧致积分Kaehler流形的不可约子簇的矩映射象的凸性结果。V. Guillemin和R. Sjamaar将这一结果推广到仅由博雷尔子群保持的不可约子簇。在另一个方向,L。O'Shea和R. Sjamaar证明了由反辛对合固定的子流形的矩映射象的凸性结果。类似于Guillemin和Sjamaar对Brion定理的推广,本文推广了O'Shea和Sjamaar的结果,证明了博雷尔子群所保持的不可约子簇的对合不动集的矩映射象的一个凸性定理.
In [GMPS] we proved that the moment map image of a $b$-symplectic toric manifold is a convex $b$-polytope. In this paper we obtain convexity results for the more general case of non-toric hamiltonian torus actions on $b$-symplectic manifolds. The modular weights of the action on the connected components of the exceptional hypersurface play a fundamental role: either they are all zero and the moment map behaves as in classic symplectic one, or they are all nonzero and the moment map behaves as in the toric $b$-symplectic case studied in [GMPS].
Convexity package for momentum maps on contact manifolds
设环面T有效地作用在紧致连通共定向切触流形上,Psi是辛化上的自然动量映射。证明了:当dim T > 2时,Psi的原点与象的并是一个凸多面锥,Psi的非零水平集是连通的(而零水平集是不连通的),Psi的动量映射是开的.这回答了Eugene Lerman提出的一个问题,当零水平集为空时,他证明了类似的结果。我们还分析了dim T <= 2的例子。
In the present paper we introduce and study a new notion of toric manifold in the quaternionic setting. We develop a construction with which, starting from appropriate $m$-dimensional Delzant polytopes, we obtain manifolds of real dimension $4m$, acted on by $m$ copies of the group ${\rm Sp}(1)$ of unit quaternions. These manifolds are quaternionic regular and can be endowed with a $4$-plectic structure and a generalized moment map. Convexity properties of the image of the moment map are studied. Quaternionic toric manifolds appear to be a large enough class of examples where one can test and …
