dc.descriptionKarshon constructed the first counterexample to the log-concavity conjecture for the Duistermaat-Heckman measure: a Hamiltonian six manifold whose fixed points set is the disjoint union of two copies of $T^4$. In this article, for any closed symplectic four manifold $N$ with $b+$ greater than 1, we show that there is a Hamiltonian six manifold $M$ such that its fixed points set is the disjoint union of two copies of $N$ and such that its Duistermaat-Heckman function is not log-concave. On the other hand, we prove that if there is a torus action of complexity two such that all the symplectic reduced spaces taken at regular values satisfy the condition $b+=1$, then its Duistermaat-Heckman function has to be log-concave. As a consequence, we prove the log-concavity conjecture for Hamiltonian circle actions on six manifolds such that the fixed points sets have no four dimensional components, or only have four dimensional pieces with $b+=1$.
