Classification of Hamiltonian torus actions with two-dimensional quotients

Yael Karshon and Susan Tolman

Geometry & Topology 18 (2014) 669–716
Abstract

We construct all possible Hamiltonian torus actions for which all the nonempty reduced spaces are two-dimensional (and not single points) and the manifold is connected and compact, or, more generally, the moment map is proper as a map to a convex set. This construction completes the classification of tall complexity-one spaces.

Keywords
