We present an algebraic method to study four-dimensional toric varieties by lifting matrix equations from the special linear group ${rm SL}_2({mathbb Z})$ to its preimage in the universal cover of ${rm SL}_2({mathbb R})$. With this method we recover the classification of two-dimensional toric fans, and obtain a description of their semitoric analogue. As an application to symplectic geometry of Hamiltonian systems, we give a concise proof of the connectivity of the moduli space of toric integrable systems in dimension four, recovering a known result, and extend it to the case of semitoric integrable systems with a fixed number of focus-focus points and which are in the same twisting index class. In particular, we show that any semitoric system with precisely one focus-focus singular point can be continuously deformed into a system in the same isomorphism class as the Jaynes-Cummings model from optics.

Semitoric systems are a type of four-dimensional integrable system for which one of the integrals generates a global $S^1$-action; these systems were classified by Pelayo and Vu Ngoc in terms of five symplectic invariants. We introduce and study semitoric families, which are one-parameter families of integrable systems with a fixed $S^1$-action that are semitoric for all but finitely many values of the parameter, with the goal of developing a strategy to find a semitoric system associated to a given partial list of semitoric invariants. We also enumerate the possible behaviors of such families at the parameter values for which they are not semitoric, providing examples illustrating nearly all possible behaviors, which describes the possible limits of semitoric systems with a fixed $S^1$-action. Furthermore, we investigate how semitoric families behave under toric type blowups and blowdowns, and use this to prove that each Hirzebruch surface admits a semitoric family with certain desirable invariants related to the semitoric minimal model program. Finally, we give several explicit semitoric families on the first and second Hirzebruch surfaces showcasing various possible behaviors of such families which include new semitoric systems that, to our knowledge, are the first explicit systems verified to be semitoric on a compact manifold other than $S^2 times S^2$ .
Let $X$ be a smooth irreducible complex algebraic variety of dimension $n$ and $L$ a very ample line bundle on $X$. Given a toric degeneration of $(X,L)$ satisfying some natural technical hypotheses, we construct a deformation ${J_s}$ of the complex structure on $X$ and bases $mathcal{B}_s$ of $H^0(X,L, J_s)$ so that $J_0$ is the standard complex structure and, in the limit as $s to infty$, the basis elements approach dirac-delta distributions centered at Bohr-Sommerfeld fibers of a moment map associated to $X$ and its toric degeneration. The theory of Newton-Okounkov bodies and its associated toric degenerations shows that the technical hypotheses mentioned above hold in some generality. Our results significantly generalize previous results in geometric quantization which prove independence of polarization between Kahler quantizations and real polarizations. As an example, in the case of general flag varieties $X=G/B$ and for certain choices of $lambda$, our result geometrically constructs a continuous degeneration of the (dual) canonical basis of $V_{lambda}^*$ to a collection of dirac delta functions supported at the Bohr-Sommerfeld fibres corresponding exactly to the lattice points of a Littelmann-Berenstein-Zelevinsky string polytope $Delta_{underline{w}_0}(lambda) cap mathbb{Z}^{dim(G/B)}$.
We consider an analogue of Wittens $SL(2,mathbb{Z})$ action on three-dimensional QFTs with $U(1)$ symmetry for $2k$-dimensional QFTs with $mathbb{Z}_2$ $(k-1)$-form symmetry. We show that the $SL(2,mathbb{Z})$ action only closes up to a multiplication by an invertible topological phase whose partition function is the Brown-Kervaire invariant of the spacetime manifold. We interpret it as part of the $SL(2,mathbb{Z})$ anomaly of the bulk $(2k+1)$-dimensional $mathbb{Z}_2$ gauge theory.
In recent papers, summarized in survey [1], we construct a number of examples of non standard lagrangian tori on compact toric varieties and as well on certain non toric varieties which admit pseudotoric structures. Using this pseudotoric technique we explain how non standard lagrangian tori of Chekanov type can be constructed and what is the topological difference between standard Liouville tori and the non standard ones. However we have not discussed the natural question about the periods of the constructed twist tori; in particular the monotonicity problem for the monotonic case was not studied there. In the paper we present several remarks on these questions, in particular we show for the monotonic case how to construct non standard lagrangian tori which satisify the monotonicity condition. First of all we study non standard tori which are Bohr - Sommerfeld with respect to the anticanonical class. This notion was introduced in [2], where one defines certain universal Maslov class for the ${rm BS}_{can}$ lagrangian submanifolds in compact simply connected monotonic symplectic manifolds. Then we show how monotonic non standard lagrangian tori of Chekanov type can be constructed. Furthemore we extend the consideration to pseudotoric setup and construct examples of monotonic lagrangian tori in non toric monotonic manifolds: complex 4 - dimensional quadric and full flag variety $F^3$.
For a positive integer $g$, let $mathrm{Sp}_{2g}(R)$ denote the group of $2g times 2g$ symplectic matrices over a ring $R$. Assume $g ge 2$. For a prime number $ell$, we give a self-contained proof that any closed subgroup of $mathrm{Sp}_{2g}(mathbb{Z}_ell)$ which surjects onto $mathrm{Sp}_{2g}(mathbb{Z}/ellmathbb{Z})$ must in fact equal all of $mathrm{Sp}_{2g}(mathbb{Z}_ell)$. The result and the method of proof are both motivated by group-theoretic considerations that arise in the study of Galois representations associated to abelian varieties.
