On certain geometric and homotopy properties of closed symplectic manifolds

The paper deals with relations between the Hard Lefschetz property, (non)vanishing of Massey products and the evenness of odd-degree Betti numbers of closed symplectic manifolds. It is known that closed symplectic manifolds can violate all these properties (in contrast with the case of Kaehler manifolds). However, the relations between such homotopy properties seem to be not analyzed. This analysis may shed a new light on topology of symplectic manifolds. In the paper, we summarize our knowledge in tables (different in the simply-connected and in symplectically aspherical cases). Also, we discuss the variation of symplectically harmonic Betti numbers on some 6-dimensional manifolds.

On symplectic manifolds with aspherical symplectic form

We consider closed symplectically aspherical manifolds, i.e. closed symplectic manifolds $(M,ω)$ satisfying the condition $[ω]|_{π_2M}=0$. Rudyak and Oprea [RO] remarked that such manifolds have nice and controllable homotopy properties. Now it is clear that these properties are mostly determined by the fact that the strict category weight of $[ω]$ equals 2. We apply the theory of strict category weight to the problem of estimating the number of closed orbits of charged particles in symplectic magnetic fields. In case of symplectically aspherical manifolds our theory enables us to improve some known estimations.
