Gambaudo--Ghys construction on bounded cohomology

Abstract

We consider a generalized Gambaudo--Ghys construction on bounded cohomology and prove its injectivity. As a corollary, we prove that the third bounded cohomology of the group of area-preserving diffeomorphisms on the 2-disk is infinite-dimensional. We also prove similar results for the case of the 2-sphere, the 2-torus and the annulus.
