Abstract: An affine symplectic singularity $X$ with a good $\mathbf{C}^{\ast }$ -action is called a conical symplectic variety. In this paper we prove the following theorem. For fixed positive integers $N$ and $d$ , there are only a finite number of conical symplectic varieties of dimension $2d$ with maximal weights $N$ , up to an isomorphism. To prove the main theorem, we first relate a conical symplectic variety with a log Fano Kawamata log terminal (klt) pair, which has a contact structure. By the boundedness result for log Fano klt pairs with fixed Cartier index, we prove that conical symplectic varieties of a fixed dimension and with a fixed maximal weight form a bounded family. Next we prove the rigidity of conical symplectic varieties by using Poisson deformations.
