symplectic manifolds
Symplectic manifolds are smooth, mathematical spaces equipped with a specific geometric structure known as a symplectic form. This symplectic form gives each point in the manifold a way to measure the "volume" or "size" of an infinitesimally small shape, preserving certain properties under geometric transformations.
