Semi-toric integrable systems and moment polytopes

Semi-toric integrable systems are integrable systems whose every component of the moment map are periodic of the same period. They are symplectic manifolds endowed with a Hamiltonian torus actions. At the beginning of the 80's, Atiyah-Guillemin-Sternberg proved that the image of the moment map was a polytope with rational faces. A bit after that, Delzant showed that in the integrable case that matters to us, this polytope characterized entirely the system, that is, the symplectic manifold as well as the torus action. Next, field of study widened to semi-toric systems. They are integrable systems whose all components except one are periodic with the same period. Moreover, to simplify their study, we ask that these systems have only non-degenerate critical points without hyperbolic components. On the other hand, critical points of semi-toric systems can have so-called ''focus-focus'' components. They have a richer dynamic than elliptic singularities, but it retains some properties that makes them easier to study than hyperbolic singularities. San Vu-Ngoc and Alvaro Pelayo have managed to extend to these semi-toric systems the results of Atiyah-Guillemin-Sternberg and Delzant in dimension 2. The objective of this thesis is to propose an extension of these results to any dimension, starting with dimension 3. Techniques involved are analysis as well as symplectic geometry, and Morse theory in stratified differential spaces.
