dc.descriptionUsing a "Hodge decomposition" of symplectic isotopies on a compact symplectic manifold $(M,ω)$, we construct a norm on the identity component in the group of all symplectic diffeomorphisms of $(M,ω)$ whose restriction to the group $Ham(M,ω)$ of hamiltonian diffeomorphisms is bounded from above by the Hofer norm. Moreover, $Ham(M,ω)$ is closed in $Symp(M,ω)$ equipped with the topology induced by the extended norm. We give an application to the $C^0$ symplectic topology. We also discuss extensions of Oh's spectral distance.
