Reduction of Entov–Polterovich quasimorphisms to Donaldson divisors

Let (X,Σ)(X,\Sigma) be a pair consisting of a closed monotone symplectic manifold and a Donaldson divisor. Let

μXEP:Ham~(X)R\mu_X^{EP}:\widetilde{\operatorname{Ham}}(X)\longrightarrow\mathbb{R}

be an Entov–Polterovich quasimorphism such that the skeleton Δ\Delta is small. Let Θ\Theta denote the reduction map associated with the Donaldson divisor.

Reduction conjecture. The reduction of μXEP\mu_X^{EP} to Σ\Sigma is also an Entov–Polterovich quasimorphism: there exists an Entov–Polterovich quasimorphism

μΣEP:Ham~(Σ)R\mu_\Sigma^{EP}:\widetilde{\operatorname{Ham}}(\Sigma)\longrightarrow\mathbb{R}

that satisfies

ΘμXEP=μΣEP.\Theta^*\mu_X^{EP}=\mu_\Sigma^{EP}.

This conjecture concerns the expected compatibility between Entov–Polterovich quasimorphisms on a monotone symplectic manifold and on a Donaldson divisor. The source presents it as an expected consequence related to the reduction of quasimorphisms; no resolution is supplied here.
