Harada, Megumi (ed.) et al., Toric topology. International conference, Osaka, Japan, May 28–June 3, 2006. Providence, RI: American Mathematical Society (AMS) (ISBN 978-0-8218-4486-1/pbk). Contemporary Mathematics 460, 47-70 (2008).
Summary: We review and streamline our previous results and the results of Y. Ostrover on the existence of Calabi quasi-morphisms and symplectic quasistates on symplectic manifolds with semi-simple quantum homology. As an illustration, we discuss the case of symplectic toric Fano 4-manifolds. We present also new results due to D. McDuff: she observed that for the existence of quasi-morphisms/quasi-states it suffices to assume that the quantum homology contains a field as a direct summand, and she showed that this weaker condition holds true for one point blow-ups of non-uniruled symplectic manifolds.
