Abstract: Motivated by recent works on Hamiltonian circle actions satisfying certain minimal conditions, in this paper, we consider Hamiltonian circle actions satisfying an almost minimal condition. More precisely, we consider a compact symplectic manifold (M,omega) admitting a Hamiltonian circle action with fixed point set consisting of two connected components X and Y satisfying dim(X)+dim(Y)=dim(M). Under certain cohomology conditions, we determine the circle action, the integral cohomology rings of M, X and Y, and the total Chern classes of M, X, Y, and of the normal bundles of X and Y. The results show that these data are unique --- they are exactly the same as those in the standard example Gt2(R2n+2), the Grassmannian of oriented 2-planes in R2n+2, which is of dimension 4n with (any) ninN, equipped with a standard circle action. Moreover, if M is K"ahler and the action is holomorphic, we can use a few different criteria to claim that M is S1-equivariantly biholomorphic and S1-equivariantly symplectomorphic to Gt2(R2n+2).
