Dual elliptic structures on CP2
Abstract
We consider an almost complex structure J on CP2, or more generally an elliptic structure E which is tamed by the standard symplectic structure. An E-curve is a surface tangent to E (this generalizes the notion of J(holomorphic)-curve), and an E-line is an E-curve of degree 1. We prove that the space of E-lines is again a CP2 with a tame elliptic structure E^*, and that each E-curve has an associated dual E^*-curve. This implies that the E-curves, and in particular the J-curves, satisfy the Pl\"ucker formulas, which restricts their possible sets of singularities.

18 pages The only difference with the first version is the mention of the thesis of Benjamin MacKay ("Duality and integrable systems of pseudoholomorphic curves", Duke University, 1999), which I did not know at the time, and which contains a large part of the results of my paper
