Group cocycles on the volume-preserving diffeomorphism group

Geometric Topology 2020-12-08 v1

Abstract

We construct two kinds of group cocycles on the volume-preserving diffeomorphism group. We show that, for the volume-preserving diffeomorphism group of the sphere, one of the cocycles gives the Euler class of flat sphere bundles.
