The descent conjecture for the continuous Calabi quasi-morphism on the two-sphere
The descent conjecture for the continuous Calabi quasi-morphism on the two-sphere
Let denote the space of continuous Hamiltonian paths from the identity, let be the extension of the homogeneous Calabi quasi-morphism, and let be the time-one evaluation map. Fathi's conjecture. The quasi-morphism descends to a homogeneous quasi-morphism such that
Equivalently, depends only on the time-one map for . The conjecture is intended to address simplicity questions for area-preserving homeomorphisms; the corresponding smooth statement was proved by Entov and Polterovich, while the source gives no resolution for the continuous setting.
