Degenerate Maxima in Hamiltonian Systems

preprint2009arXivOpen access

Abstract

In this paper we explore loops of non-autonomous Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms with degenerate fixed maxima. We show that such loops can not have totally degenerate fixed global maxima. This has applications for the Hofer geometry of the group of Hamiltonians for certain symplectic 4 manifolds and also gives criteria for certain 4 manifolds to be uniruled.
