Compatible complex structures on symplectic rational ruled surfaces

From MaRDI portal




Abstract: In this paper we study the topology of the space Iomega of complex structures compatible with a fixed symplectic form omega, using the framework of Donaldson. By comparing our analysis of the space Iomega with results of McDuff on the space catJomega of compatible almost complex structures on rational ruled surfaces, we find that Iomega is contractible in this case. We then apply this result to study the topology of the symplectomorphism group of a rational ruled surface, extending results of Abreu and McDuff.
