Abstract:
We consider Sjamaar forms on (singular) symplectic quotients and ask whether this definition is intrinsic. In particular, if we can show that this complex is isomorphic to the de Rham complex of diffeological forms on the space, then this yields an affirmative answer. We shall examine when this isomorphism is known to exists, and the questions that arise when searching for the result where the answer remains unknown.
