Abstract

We study the problem of description of the symplectic map** class groups \(\pi _0\big ( {\textit{Symp}}( X,\omega ) \big )\) (SyMCG) of rational 4-manifolds \(X={{\mathbb {C}}{\mathbb {P}}}^2 \# l\overline{{{\mathbb {C}}{\mathbb {P}}}}^2\). We specify a certain class of symplectic forms \(\omega \) on such X for which we give a finite presentation of the SyMCG with generators symplectic Dehn twists along Lagrangian spheres. This is a joint work with my scientific advisor Vsevolod Shevchishin.
