Symplectic automorphisms of CP^2 and the Thompson group T

Abstract

We explain how to construct a morphism from the group of birational automorphisms of CP^2 preserving the logarithmic Poisson bracket to the Thompson group T. Than we give a linear representation of the former group, provide some information about Thompson group T and give it's new presentation in terms of generators and relations, and speculate about the presentation of the group of birational symplectomorphisms.
