Oct 5, 2010 at 13:54 comment added Dick Palais YES ! Thank you for pointing that out. I was in fact unaware of the technical meaning of "Hamiltonian diffeomorphism" and just assumed that the OP was using it as a synonym for symplectomorphism. For others who may not have known the definition of Hamiltonian diffeomorphism, see the paper by Banyaga at www.math.psu.edu/wade/dakar.pdf
