The present paper considers volume formulæ, as well as trigonometric identities, that hold for a tetrahedron in 3-dimensional spherical space of constant sectional curvature +1. The tetrahedron possesses a certain symmetry: namely rotation of angle$π$in the middle points of a certain pair of its skew edges.

We show that the symmetrized bidisc may be exhausted by strongly linearly convex domains. It shows in particular the existence of a strongly linearly convex domain that cannot be exhausted by domains biholomorphic to convex ones.

We obtain an effective lower bound on the distance of the sum of co-adjoint orbits from the origin. Even when the distance is zero (thus the symplectic quotient is well defined) our result gives a nontrivial constraint on these co-adjoint orbits. In the particular case of unitary groups, we obtain the quadratic inequality for eigenvalues of Hermitian matrices satisfying A + B = C. This quadratic inequality can be interpreted as the Chern number inequality for semi-stable reflexive toric sheaves.

Almost toric manifolds form a class of singular Lagrangian fibered symplectic manifolds that include both toric manifolds and the K3 surface. We classify closed almost toric four-manifolds up to diffeomorphism and indicate precisely the structure of all almost toric fibrations of closed symplectic four-manifolds. A key step in the proof is a geometric classification of the singular integral affine structures that can occur on the base of an almost toric fibration of a closed four-manifold. As a byproduct we provide a geometric explanation for why a generic Lagrangian fibration over the two-sphere must have 24 singular fibers.

We study the geometry of the Grassmannians of symplectic subspaces in a symplectic vector space. We construct symplectic twistor spaces by the symplectic quotient construction and use them to describe the symplectic geometry of the symplectic Grassmannians.

We use Seidel representation for symplectic orbifolds to compute the quantum cohomology ring of a compact symplectic toric orbifold (X , ω).
