Hamiltonian loops from the ergodic point of view

Leonid Polterovich — 1999

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Let G be the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of a closed symplectic manifold Y . A loop h : S 1 G is called strictly ergodic if for some irrational number the associated skew product map T : S 1 × Y S 1 × Y defined by T ( t , y ) = ( t + α ; h ( t ) y ) is strictly ergodic. In the present paper we address the following question. Which elements of the fundamental group of G can be represented by strictly ergodic loops? We prove existence of contractible strictly ergodic loops for a wide class of symplectic manifolds (for instance for simply connected...
