Abstract

In the 1960s Arnold conjectured that a Hamiltonian diffeomorphism of a closed connected symplectic manifold (M,ω)(M,\omega) should have at least as many contractible fixed points as a smooth function on MM has critical points. Such a conjecture can be seen as a natural generalization of Poincar\'e's last geometric theorem and is one of the most famous (and still nowadays open in its full generality) problems in symplectic geometry. In this paper, we build on a recent approach of the authors and Izydorek to the Arnold conjecture on CPn\mathbb C\mathbb P^n to show that the (degenerate) Arnold conjecture holds for Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms ϕ\phi of T2m×CPn\mathbb T^{2m}\times \mathbb C\mathbb P^n, m,n1m,n\geq 1, which are C0C^0-close to the identity in the CPn\mathbb C \mathbb P^n-direction, namely that any such ϕ\phi has at least CL(T2m×CPn)+1=2m+n+1\text{CL}(\mathbb T^{2m}\times \mathbb C\mathbb P^n)+1= 2m+n+1 contractible fixed points.
