Abstract

We define partial quasi-morphisms on the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of the cotangent bundle using the spectral invariants in Lagrangian Floer homology with conormal boundary conditions, where the product compatible with the PSS isomorphism and the homological intersection product is lacking.

Notes

  1. More generally, they defined the mapping \(\mu _a\) for each \(a\in H^1(M)\), and proved that it has the properties analogous to those of a partial quasi-morphism (due to the later results of Shelukhin [24] and Kislev–Shelukhin[12], \(\mu _a\) give rise to genuine quasi-morphisms for some M). If \(M=\mathbb {T}^n\), \(\mu _p(\phi _1^H)=\overline{H}(p)\), where \(\overline{H}\) is the Viterbo’s homogenization [30] of H and \(p\in \mathbb {R}^n\cong H^1(\mathbb {T}^n)\) [15] (see also [14]).
