Abstract
Given an exact Lagrangian of an exact symplectic manifold , Cornea and Shelukhin recently introduced a remarkable "cobordism metric" on the exact Lagrangian cobordism class of . In this note we show that the Liouville flow of induces a flow on which expands cobordism distances. In particular we deduce that has infinite diameter whenever the Liouville flow is complete. We also discuss (Hamiltonian and Lagrangian) Hofer-geometric versions of our result. The proof only uses elementary differential geometry.
