Symplectic Geometry of Stein Manifolds and Plurisubharmonic Functions

Stein manifolds have a canonical built-in symplectic geometry, called Weinstein structure, which is responsible, for instance, for the classification of Stein manifolds up to deformation. In the lectures I will review the results concerning this link and its applications. I will also discuss symplectic topology of (Wein-)Stein manifolds.
