Let M be smooth symplectic closed manifold and L a closed Lagrangian submanifold of M. It was shown by Ozan that Ham(M,L): the relative Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms on M fixing the Lagrangian submanifold L setwise is a subgroup which is equal to the kernel of the restriction of the flux homomorphism to the universal cover of the identity component of the relative symplectomorphisms. In this thesis we show that Ham(M,L) is a non-simple perfect group, by adopting a technique due to Thurston, Herman, and Banyaga. This technique requires the diffeomorphism group be transitive where this property fails to exist in our case.

Invariant subspaces for Banach space operators with an annular spectral set Yavuz, Onur (2008-01-01) Consider an annulus Omega = {z epsilon C : r(0) 0 such that parallel to p(T)parallel to <= K sup{vertical bar p(lambda)vertical bar : vertical bar lambda vertical bar <= 1} and parallel to p(r(0)T(-1))parallel to <= K sup{vertical bar p(lambda)vertical bar : vertical bar lambda vertical bar <= 1} for all polynomials p. Then there exists a nontrivial common invariant subspace for T* and T*(-1).
ON THE STRUCTURE OF GENERALIZED ALBANESE VARIETIES ONSIPER, H (Cambridge University Press (CUP), 1992-03-01) Given a smooth projective surface X over an algebraically closed field k and a modulus (an effective divisor) m on X, one defines the idle class group Cm(X) of X with modulus m (see 1, chapter III, section 4). The corresponding generalized Albanese variety Gum and the generalized Albanese map um:X|m|Gum have the following universal mapping property (2): if :XG is a rational map into a commutative algebraic group which induces a homomorphism Cm(X)G(k) (1, chapter III, proposition 1), then factors uniquely th...
On the sequential order continuity of the C(K)-space Ercan, Z.; Onal, S. (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2007-03-01) As shown in [1], for each compact Hausdorff space K without isolated points, there exists a compact Hausdorff P'-space X but not an F-space such that C(K) is isometrically Riesz isomorphic to a Riesz subspace of C(X). The proof is technical and depends heavily on some representation theorems. In this paper we give a simple and direct proof without any assumptions on isolated points. Some generalizations of these results are mentioned.
Open book decompositions of links of quotient surface singularities Yılmaz, Elif; Korkmaz, Mustafa; Department of Mathematics (2009) In this thesis, we write explicitly the open book decompositions of links of quotient surface singularities that support the corresponding unique Milnor fillable contact structures. The page-genus of these Milnor open books are minimal among all Milnor open books supporting the corresponding unique Milnor fillable contact structures. That minimal page-genus is called Milnor genus. In this thesis we also investigate whether the Milnor genus is equal to the support genus for links of quotient surface singular...
Displaceability of Certain Constant Sectional Curvature Lagrangian Submanifolds Şirikçi, Nil İpek (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2020-10-01) We present an alternative proof of a nonexistence result for displaceable constant sectional curvature Lagrangian submanifolds under certain assumptions on the Lagrangian submanifold and on the ambient symplectically aspherical symplectic manifold. The proof utilizes an index relation relating the Maslov index, the Morse index and the Conley-Zehnder index for a periodic orbit of the flow of a specific Hamiltonian function, a result on this orbit's Conley-Zehnder index and another result on the Morse indices...
