We generalise results of arXiv:math/0609796 and realise explicitly the map $π_1({\rm Aut}(X))\to QH^*(X)_{loc}^\times$ described in arXiv:dg-ga/9511011. We even prove that this map is an embedding and realise it in the equivariant quantum cohomology ring $QH^*_T(X)_{loc}^\times$. We give explicit formulas for the product by these elements. The proof relies on a generalisation, to a quotient of the equivariant homology ring of the affine Grassmannian, of a formula proved by Peter Magyar arXiv:0705.3826. It also uses Peterson's unpublished result -- recently proved by Lam and Shimozono in arXiv:0705.1386 -- on the comparison between the equivariant homology ring of the affine Grassmannian and the equivariant quantum cohomology ring.15 pagesAlgebraic GeometryRepresentation Theory14M15, 14N35text
