Abstract: We prove that the Seidel morphism of $(Mimes{M}^{\prime },omegaoplusomeg{a}^{\prime })$ is naturally related to the Seidel morphisms of $(M,omega)$ and $(M^{\prime },omeg{a}^{\prime })$, when these manifolds are monotone. We deduce that any homotopy class of loops of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of one component, with non-trivial image via Seidel's morphism, leads to an injection of the fundamental group of the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of the other component into the fundamental group of the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of the product. This result was inspired by and extends results obtained by Pedroza [P08].

Review text

In the paper under review, R. Leclercq proves the naturality of the Seidel morphism with respect to the product of two symplectic manifolds \((M,\omega)\) and \((M',\omega')\) which are assumed to be closed and monotone. This extends a previous result of \textit{A. Pedroza} [Int. Math. Res. Not. 2008, Article ID rnn049 (2008; Zbl 1147.53069)] proved under the additional hypothesis \(\pi_{2}(M')=0\). As an application, the author proves that if a loop \((g,g')\) is trivial in \(\pi_{1}(\text{Ham}(M\times M',\omega\oplus\omega'))\), both loops \(g\) and \(g'\) are mapped to the identity via the Seidel morphism. In particular, if the Seidel morphism associated to \(M\) is injective then the canonical map \[ \pi_{1}(\text{Ham}(M,\omega))\times \pi_{1}(\text{Ham}(M,\omega))\rightarrow \pi_{1} (\text{Ham}(M\times M,\omega\oplus\omega)) \] is also injective.
