Abstract: We prove that there exist diffeomorphisms of tori, supported in a disc, which are not isotopic to symplectomorphisms with respect to any symplectic structure. This yields a partial negative answer to a question of Benson and Gordon about the existence of symplectic structures on tori with exotic differential structure.

Review text

The authors give a negative answer to the following problem: Given a diffeomorphism \(f:T^{2n}\rightarrow{T^{2n}}\) supported in an embedded disc but nonisotopic to the identity, is there a symplectomorphism in the isotopy class of \(f\)? More exactly, they prove the following result: For any \(k>0\) there exist a diffeomorphism \(f:T^{8k}\rightarrow{T^{8k}}\) with support in a disc which is not isotopic to a symplectomorphism of \((JT^{8k},\omega_{0})\).
