Abstract: We prove a new Hamiltonian extension and consequently a fragmentation result in dimension $4$ for the symplectic manifold $mathbb{D}^{2}imes{S}^2$. Polterovich and Shelukhin have recently constructed a family of functionals on the space of time dependent Hamiltonian functions on $S^{2}imes{S}^2(a)$ for certain rational $0<a<1$, called Lagrangian spectral estimators. Using our fragmentation result we prove that the restriction of their functionals to the subdomain $mathbb{D}^2(c)imes{S}^2(a)$ is a uniformly $C^0$-continuous functional where $0<c<1$. As an application of our results, we show that the complement of a Hofer ball in the group of compactly supported Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of $mathbb{D}^2(c)imes{S}^2(a)$ contains a $C^0$-open subset. Finally, we show that the aforementioned group equipped with the Hofer distance admits an isometric embedding of an infinite dimensional flat space for suitable values of parameters $c$ and $a$.
