Abstract

In the 80s, the foundational work of Conley, Zehnder, Gromov and Floer opened up the field of symplectic topology. In subsequent developments, many tools have been developed to tackle questions about qualitative behavior of Hamiltonian dynamical systems. I will discuss a few of these applications, focusing on a recent discovery of a new obstruction to symplectic embedding.
