C0-Analogue of Ismagilov's Theorem

Abstract

We establish a topological analogue of Ismagilov's theorem concerning the first continuous cohomology of volume-preserving diffeomorphisms. For a closed oriented manifold M with volume form Ω, we consider the group 𝔾Ω(M) of homeomorphisms obtained as uniform limits of smooth volume-preserving isotopies. We show that its first continuous cohomology with values in the Banach space of zero-mean continuous functions is isomorphic to the first de Rham cohomology of M. The proof develops a theory of transport for volume-preserving isotopies, producing a topological volume flux homomorphism and its associated transport cocycle. Under the additional hypothesis that (M,Ω) satisfies the local C0-generation property, and assuming the Müller-Sikorav approximation theorem (known for n≠ 4), the isomorphism extends to the full identity component Homeo0Ω(M) of the group of volume-preserving homeomorphisms, and the topological flux conjecture follows in that setting.

AB  - We establish a topological analogue of Ismagilov's theorem concerning the first continuous cohomology of volume-preserving diffeomorphisms. For a closed oriented manifold M with volume form Ω, we consider the group 𝔾^Ω(M) of homeomorphisms obtained as uniform limits of smooth volume-preserving isotopies. We show that its first continuous cohomology with values in the Banach space of zero-mean continuous functions is isomorphic to the first de Rham cohomology of M. The proof develops a theory of transport for volume-preserving isotopies, producing a topological volume flux homomorphism and its associated transport cocycle. Under the additional hypothesis that (M,Ω) satisfies the local C^0-generation property, and assuming the Müller-Sikorav approximation theorem (known for n≠ 4), the isomorphism extends to the full identity component Homeo_0^Ω(M) of the group of volume-preserving homeomorphisms, and the topological flux conjecture follows in that setting.
