"Cohomology of some symplectomorphism groups"




Abstract: In this talk, we will explain how the rational cohomology ring of Sympl(X) can be calculated when X is a rational symplectic 4-manifold. Complete results will be given for $CP^2$, $S^2\times S^2$ and their blow-ups at a ball of capacity $c$.
