Feb 11, 2010 at 12:13 | comment | added | jvkersch | Of course, in the usual setup the flux homomorphism is circle valued -- that's the whole point. Sorry for being so slow on the uptake, I realized it the moment I added my comment. | |
Feb 11, 2010 at 12:11 | comment | added | jvkersch | Thanks for pointing this out. It took me a while to get it, but you're right: when choosing the 2-cycle S you can add any multiple of the fundamental class. I guess I need to add the condition that $[S] = 0$ as an element of $H_2$. Hmm, this is a good point -- I'm not sure how this is addressed in the usual definition of the flux homomorphism. | |
