Hofer–Zehnder capacity of disc tangent bundles of projective spaces

Abstract

AbstractWe compute the Hofer–Zehnder capacity of disc tangent bundles of the complex and real projective spaces of any dimension. The disc bundle is taken with respect to the Fubini–Study resp. round metric, but we can obtain explicit bounds for any other metric. In the case of the complex projective space, we also compute the Hofer–Zehnder capacity for the magnetically twisted case, where the twist is proportional to the Fubini–Study form. For arbitrary twists, we can still give explicit upper bounds.
