Symplectic fillability of toric contact manifolds in higher dimensions

I will discuss strong and weak fillability of toric contact manifolds. In particular, I will show that every toric contact manifold in dimension greater than three is weakly symplectically fillable.

This result does not hold in dimension three since overtwisted toric contact 3-manifolds are known.

The Informal Geometry Seminar, as its name says, is an informal seminar for graduate students and postdocs at IST to share their ideas with each other and a good place to ask simple questions without any pressure.
