Classification problems for symplectic manifolds supporting Hamiltonian torus actions

In the talk we discuss recent progress in classification of symplectic manifolds supporting Hamiltonian actions of a high-dimensional torus. We explain how methods of complex cobordism theory can be used for further development of this area.
