Abstract

Drawing on the classification of symplectic manifolds with coisotropic principal orbits by Duistermaat and Pelayo, in this note we exhibit families of compact symplectic manifolds, such that: (i) no two manifolds in a family are homotopically equivalent; (ii) each manifold in each family possesses Hamiltonian, and non-Hamiltonian, toric symmetries; (iii) each manifold has odd first Betti number and hence it is not a Kähler manifold. This can be viewed as an application of the aforementioned classification.
