摘要

We compute the Hofer–Zehnder capacity of disk tangent bundles of certain lens spaces with respect to the round metric. Interestingly, we find that the Hofer–Zehnder capacity does not see the covering, i.e. the capacity of the disk tangent bundle of the lens space coincides with the capacity of the disk tangent bundle of the 3-sphere covering it. In particular, this gives a first example, where Gromov width and Hofer–Zehnder capacity of a disk tangent bundle disagree. We use techniques that include magnetic billiards for the lower bound and Gromov–Witten invariants for the upper bound.
