Abstract: In recent joint work with Dusa McDuff and Felix Schlenk we proved that every linear symplectic structure on T^4 admits a full filling with one symplectic ball. In This talk, I will discuss this result, concentrating on the explicit construction in the most interesting case, namely for the standard product torus of equal areas.
