The Hofer-distance conjecture for commutator-length strata
The Hofer-distance conjecture for commutator-length strata
Let be a symplectic manifold, let denote the Hamiltonian diffeomorphism group, and let be the subspace of diffeomorphisms whose commutator length is at most . For , let be the associated seminorm defined using Hamiltonian fibrations over surfaces with at most handles. Hofer-distance conjecture. The distance, in the usual Hofer norm, between and is equal to .
This conjecture relates the fibration-based seminorms to the Hofer geometry of the commutator-length filtration. The source says that it is studied in the cited work, while the supplied text gives no resolution evidence.
