Abstract
The symplectomorphism group of a 2–dimensional surface is homotopy equivalent to the orbit of a filling system of curves. We give a generalization of this statement to dimension 4. The filling system of curves is replaced by a decomposition of the symplectic 4–manifold into a disjoint union of an isotropic 2–complex and a disc bundle over a symplectic surface which is Poincare dual to a multiple of the form . We show that then one can recover the homotopy type of the symplectomorphism group of from the orbit of the pair . This allows us to compute the homotopy type of certain spaces of Lagrangian submanifolds, for example the space of Lagrangian isotopic to the standard one.
