A relative Hofer estimate and the asymptotic Hofer-Lipschitz constant

Symplectic Geometry 2021-12-24 v3

Abstract

Let (M,ω)(M,\omega) be a symplectic manifold and UMU\subseteq M an open subset. We study the natural inclusion of the compactly supported Hamiltonian group of UU in the compactly supported Hamiltonian group of MM. The main result is an upper bound for this map in terms of the Hofer norms for UU and MM. Applications are upper bounds on the asymptotic Hofer-Lipschitz constant and the relative Hofer diameter of UU. The first bound is often sharp and the second one is often sharp up to a factor of 2.

27 pages. We improved the main result by making it sharp in one way and sharp up to a factor of two in another way
