Quasi-morphismes et invariant de Calabi
Résumé
In this paper, we give two elementary constructions of homogeneous quasi-morphisms defined on the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of certain closed connected symplectic manifolds (or on its universal cover). The first quasi-morphism, denoted by $\calabi_{S}$, is defined on the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of a closed oriented surface $S$ of genus greater than $1$. This construction is motivated by a question of M. Entov and L. Polterovich. If $U\subset S$ is a disk or an annulus, the restriction of $\calabi_{S}$ to the subgroup of diffeomorphisms which are the time one map of a Hamiltonian isotopy in $U$ equals Calabi's homomorphism. The second quasi-morphism is defined on the universal cover of the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of a symplectic manifold for which the cohomology class of the symplectic form is a multiple of the first Chern class.
