The flux homomorphism and central extensions of diffeomorphism groups

Published 20 May 2019 in math.GT and math.SG | (1905.08029v2)

Abstract: Let DD be a 2-dimensional closed unit disk and Symp(D,0)<em>rel\rm{Symp}(D,0)<em>{\rm{rel}} the group of symplectomorphisms preserving the origin and the boundary ∂D\partial D pointwise. We consider the R\mathbb{R}-valued flux homomorphism on Symp(D,0)</em>rel\rm{Symp}(D,0)</em>{\rm{rel}} and define the central R\mathbb{R}-extension called the R\mathbb{R}-valued flux extension. We determine the Euler class of this extension and investigate the relation between the extension, the group $2$-cocycle defined by Ismagilov, Losik, and Michor, and the Calabi invariant of DD.
