Abstract
Let be a 2-dimensional closed unit disk and the group of symplectomorphisms preserving the origin and the boundary pointwise. We consider the -valued flux homomorphism on and define the central -extension called the -valued flux extension. We determine the Euler class of this extension and investigate the relation between the extension, the group -cocycle defined by Ismagilov, Losik, and Michor, and the Calabi invariant of .
