Polterovich's Poisson bracket invariant lower-bound conjecture
Polterovich's Poisson bracket invariant lower-bound conjecture
Let be a closed symplectic manifold. For a finite open cover of , let denote its Poisson bracket invariant, let denote the displacement energy of , and set
Polterovich's conjecture. There exists a constant , depending only on the symplectic manifold , such that for every finite open cover of ,
This lower bound can be interpreted as an uncertainty principle for Poisson bracket invariants. The invariant is known to be strictly positive when the cover consists of displaceable sets, while the conjectured quantitative lower bound remains open in higher dimensions.
