Abstract

Let XX be a Weinstein manifold with ideal contact boundary YY. If ΛY\Lambda\subset Y is a link of Legendrian spheres in YY then by attaching Weinstein handles to XX along Λ\Lambda we get a Weinstein cobordism XΛX_{\Lambda} with a collection of Lagrangian co-core disks CC corresponding to Λ\Lambda. In \cite{BEE, EL} it was shown that the wrapped Floer cohomology CW(C)CW^{\ast}(C) of CC in the Weinstein manifold XΛ=XXΛX'_{\Lambda}=X\cup X_{\Lambda}is naturally isomorphic to the Legendrian differential graded algebra CE(Λ)CE^{\ast}(\Lambda) of Λ\Lambda in YY. The argument uses properties of moduli spaces of holomorphic curves, the proofs of which were only sketched. The purpose of this paper is to provide proofs of these properties.
