Symplectomorphism Group

We explore a relationship between topological properties of the orbits of 2-cycles in the symplectomorphism group Symp(M) and the existence of rational curves in M. Under the absence of rational curves hypothesis, we show that the evaluation map vanishies on π2 and obtain a Gottlieb-type vanishing theorem for toroidal cycles in Symp(M).

Chern Simons

We explain the relation between supersymmetry and equivariant cohomology, combining recent investigations of Chern-Simons quantum mechanics and path integrals on coadjoint orbits. We then construct a supersymmetric (topological) quantum mechanics model whose partition function — probing the cohomology of the symplectomorphism group — yields a symplectic invariant introduced by Weinstein. We demonstrate by explicit calculation that this provides another example where the Duistermaat-Heckman theorem (exactness of the semi-classical approximation) appears to hold in infinite dimensions, and make some suggestions concerning its role in (conformal) field theory.
