We consider the moduli space of flat SO (2 n  + 1)-connections (up to gauge transformations) on a Riemann surface, with fixed holonomy around a marked point. There are natural line bundles over this moduli space; we construct geometric representatives for the Chern classes of these line bundles, and prove that the ring generated by these Chern classes vanishes below the dimension of the moduli space, generalizing a conjecture of Newstead.

Asymptotic velocity is defined as the Cesàro limit of velocity. As such, its existence has been proved for bounded interaction potentials. This is known to be wrong in celestial mechanics with four or more bodies. Here, we show for a class of pair potentials including the homogeneous ones of degree − α for α ∈(0, 2), that asymptotic velocities exist for up to four bodies, dimension three or larger, for any energy and almost all initial conditions on the energy surface.

The paper surveys open problems and questions related to different aspects of integrable systems with finitely many degrees of freedom. Many of the open problems were suggested by the participants of the conference ‘Finite-dimensional Integrable Systems, FDIS 2017’ held at CRM, Barcelona in July 2017. This article is part of the theme issue ‘Finite dimensional integrable systems: new trends and methods’.

AbstractWe compute cup-product pairings in the integral cohomology ring of the moduli space of rank two stable bundles with odd determinant over a Riemann surface using methods of Zagier. The resulting formula is related to a generating function for certain skew Schur polynomials. As an application, we compute the nilpotency degree of a distinguished degree two generator in the mod two cohomology ring. We then give descriptions of the mod two cohomology rings in low genus, and describe the subrings invariant under the mapping-class group action.

Let X be a compact connected Riemann surface of genus at least two. Let r be a prime number and ξ → X a holomorphic line bundle such that r is not a divisor of degree ξ. Let [Formula: see text] denote the moduli space of stable vector bundles over X of rank r and determinant ξ. By Γ we will denote the group of line bundles L over X such that L⊗r is trivial. This group Γ acts on [Formula: see text] by the rule (E, L) ↦ E ⊗ L. We compute the Chen–Ruan cohomology of the corresponding orbifold.

In this paper, we give a short survey of recent results on the algebraic version of the Birkhoff conjecture for integrable billiards on surfaces of constant curvature. We also discuss integrable magnetic billiards. As a new application of the algebraic technique, we study the existence of polynomial integrals for the two-sided magnetic billiards introduced by Kozlov and Polikarpov.

We discuss normal forms and symplectic invariants of parabolic orbits and cuspidal tori in integrable Hamiltonian systems with two degrees of freedom. Such singularities appear in many integrable systems in geometry and mathematical physics and can be considered as the simplest example of degenerate singularities. We also suggest some new techniques which apparently can be used for studying symplectic invariants of degenerate singularities of more general type. This article is part of the theme issue ‘Finite dimensional integrable systems: new trends and methods’.

In this survey, we provide a concise introduction to convex billiards and describe some recent results, obtained by the authors and collaborators, on the classification of integrable billiards, namely the so-called Birkhoff conjecture.
