Abstract
Abstract We define a cocycle on the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of a symplectically aspherical manifold and investigate its properties. The main application is an alternative proof of the Polterovich theorem about the distortion of cyclic subgroups in finitely generated groups of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms.
