Abstract

Let MM be a 2n2n-dimensional closed symplectic manifold admitting a Hamiltonian circle action with isolated fixed points. We show that if MM contains an S1S^1-invariant symplectic hypersurface DD such that MDM\setminus D is a homology cell, which is satisfied when MDM\setminus D is contractible, then MM and DD are homotopy complex projective spaces with standard Chern classes and the S1S^1-representations on the fixed-point set of (M,D)(M,D) are the same as those arising from the standard linear actions on (Pn,Pn1)(\mathbb{P}^n,\mathbb{P}^{n-1}), provided that n≢3(mod4)n \not \equiv 3 \pmod 4. This can be viewed as the transformation group analogue to a recent result obtained by Peternell and the author, where the latter was conjectured by Fujita more than four decades ago.
