We present smooth simply connected closed 4k-dimensional manifolds N := N_k, for each k ∈ {2, 3, ⋯}, with distinct symplectic deformation equivalence classes [[ω_i]], i = 1, 2. To distinguish [[ω_i]]’s, we used the symplectic Z invariant in [4] which depends only on the symplectic deformation equivalence class. We have computed that Z(N, [[ω₁]]) = ∞ and Z(N, [[ω₂]]) < 0.

We present a smooth simply connected closed eight dimensional manifold with distinct symplectic deformation equivalence classes [[${\omega}_i$]], i = 1, 2 such that the symplectic Z invariant, which is defined in terms of the scalar curvatures of almost K$\ddot{a}$hler metrics in [5], satisfies $Z(M,[[{\omega}_1]])={\infty}$ and $Z(M,[[{\omega}_2]])$ < 0.
