The hofer conjecture on embedding symplectic ellipsoids

Dusa McDuff Columbia University

Differential Geometry mathscidoc:1609.10231

Journal of Differential Geometry, 88, (3), 519-532, 2011
In this note we show that one open 4-dimensional ellipsoid embeds symplectically into another if and only if the ECH capacities of the first are no larger than those of the second. This proves a conjecture due to Hofer. The argument uses the equivalence of the ellipsoidal embedding problem with a ball embedding problem that was recently established by McDuff. Its method is inspired by Hutchings’ recent results on embedded contact homology (ECH) capacities but does not use them.
