Abstract
This paper studies the (small) quantum homology and cohomology of fibrations p:P→S2 whose structural group is the group of Hamiltonian symplectomorphisms of the fiber (M, ω). It gives a proof that the rational cohomology splits additively as the vector space tensor product H*(M)⊗H*(S2), and investigates conditions under which the ring structure also splits, thus generalizing work of Lalonde–McDuff–Polterovich and Seidel. The main tool is a study of certain operations in the quantum homology of the total space P and of the fiber M, whose properties reflect the relations between the Gromov–Witten invariants of P and M. In order to establish these properties we further develop the language introduced in [22] to describe the virtual moduli cycle (defined by Liu–Tian, Fukaya–Ono, Li–Tian, Ruan and Siebert).
