We prove the local differentiable rigidity of generic partially hyperbolic abelian algebraic high-rank actions on compact homogeneous spaces obtained from split symplectic Lie groups. We also give examples of rigidity for nongeneric actions on compact homogeneous spaces obtained from SL$(2n,\RR)$ or SL$(2n,\CC)$. The conclusions are based on the geometric approach by Katok--Damjanovic and a progress towards computations of the generating relations in these groups.
Keywords: Actions of higher rank abelian groups, generators and relations in classical Lie groups, rigidity, cocycles, partial hyperbolicity., Steinberg symbols.
