Let Formula be a closed symplectic manifold and Formula the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of Formula . Then the Seidel homomorphism is a map from the fundamental group of Formula to the quantum homology ring Formula . Using this homomorphism, we give a sufficient condition for when a nontrivial loop Formula in Formula determines a nontrivial loop Formula in Formula , where Formula is a closed symplectic manifold such that Formula .
