Local systems on the free loop space and finiteness of the Hofer-Zehnder capacity

In this article we examine under which conditions symplectic homology with local coefficients of a unit disk bundle D^*MD∗MD^*M vanishes. For instance this is the case if the Hurewicz map \pi _2(M)\rightarrow H_2(M;{\mathbb {Z}})π2(M)→H2(M;Z)\pi _2(M)\rightarrow H_2(M;{\mathbb {Z}}) is nonzero. As a...

Zusammenfassung:In this article we examine under which conditions symplectic homology with local coefficients of a unit disk bundle D^*MD∗MD^*M vanishes. For instance this is the case if the Hurewicz map \pi _2(M)\rightarrow H_2(M;{\mathbb {Z}})π2(M)→H2(M;Z)\pi _2(M)\rightarrow H_2(M;{\mathbb {Z}}) is nonzero. As an application we prove finiteness of the \pi _1π1\pi _1-sensitive Hofer-Zehnder capacity of unit disk bundles in these cases. We also prove uniruledness for such cotangent bundles. Moreover, we find an obstruction to the existence of H-space structures on general topological spaces, formulated in terms of local systems.
