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