Relative Moser theorem

ID: relative-moser-theorem

Two closed symplectic forms agreeing as ambient bilinear forms along a compact embedded submanifold are equivalent near it by a diffeomorphism fixing it pointwise. Shrink until their affine interpolation is nondegenerate. A relative homotopy primitive for their difference vanishes as an ambient covector on the submanifold. Solving gives a vector field vanishing there; its local flow fixes the submanifold and makes constant under pullback.
