An origami manifold is a manifold equipped with a closed 2-form which is
symplectic except on a hypersurface where it is like the pullback of a
symplectic form by a folding map and its kernel defines a circle fibration. We
can move back and forth between origami and symplectic manifolds using cutting
(unfolding) and radial blow-up (folding), modulo compatibility conditions.
