The map given by the squares of degree 2k differential characters reduces to a homomorphism of ordinary cohomology groups. We prove that the homomorphism factors through the Steenrod squaring operation of degree 2k. A …

We also introduce Z(M,[[ω]])Z(M, [[ω]]) depending on symplectic deformation equivalence class [[ω]][[ω]]. We first prove tha…
