Abstract
Let be a symplectic sphere, and let be an anti-symplectic involution of . We consider the product endowed with the anti-symplectic involution , and study the space of monotone anti-invariant symplectic forms on this four-manifold. We show that this space is disconnected. In addition, during the course of the proof, we produce a diffeomorphism of the grassmannian (2,4) which induces the identity map on all homology and homotopy groups, but which is not homotopic to the identity.
