Cotangent fiber translation

Translation by a differential one-form $\beta$ is $(x,\xi )\mapsto (x,\xi +{\beta }_x)$. It changes the canonical one-form on a cotangent bundle by ${\pi }^{\ast }\beta$. A closed differential form gives a symplectomorphism; an exact differential form gives a Hamiltonian diffeomorphism when compact support is not required.

If $dh$ is not identically zero, translating cotangent fibers by $dh$ preserves the canonical symplectic form but changes the Liouville one-form by ${\pi }^{\ast }dh$. Any positive-dimensional smooth manifold has a suitable nonconstant bump function in a chart. In dimension zero every differential one-form is zero, so this distinction cannot occur.
