DESCRIPTION:Title: <a href="https://researchseminars.org/talk/Geolis/133/"
 >Contact non-squeezing at large scale via generating functions</a>\nby She
 ila Sandon (IRMA-Strasbourg) as part of Geometria em Lisboa (IST)\n\n\nAbs
 tract\nThe symplectic non-squeezing theorem\, discovered by Gromov in 1985
 \, has been the first result showing a fundamental difference between symp
 lectic transformations and volume preserving ones. A similar but more subt
 le phenomenon in contact topology was found by Eliashberg\, Kim and Polter
 ovich in 2006\, and refined by Fraser in 2016 and Chiu in 2017: in this ca
 se\nnon-squeezing depends on the size of the domains\, and only appears ab
 ove a certain quantum scale.\n\nIn my talk I will outline the geometric id
 eas behind a proof of this general contact non-squeezing theorem that uses
  generating functions\, a classical method based on finite dimensional Mor
 se theory. This is a joint work with Maia Fraser and Bingyu Zhang.\n
