Symplectic Automorphisms of C2n

Sammanfattning: This essay is a detailed survey of an article from 1996 published by Franc Forstneric, where he studies symplectic automorphisms of C2n. The vision is to introduce the density property for holomorphic symplectic manifolds. Our idea is that of Dror Varolin when he in 2001 introduced the concept of density property for Stein manifolds. The main result here is the introduction of symplectic shears on C2n equipped with a holomorphic symplectic form and to show that the group generated by finite compositions of symplectic shears is dense in the group of symplectic automorphisms of C2n in the compact-open topology. We give a complete background of the tools from the theory of ordinary differential equations, smooth manifolds, and complex and symplectic geometry that is needed in order to prove this result.
