Abstract

Links in S3S^3 as well as Legendrian links in the standard tight contact structure on S3S^3 can be encoded by grid diagrams. These consist of a collection of points on a toroidal grid, connected by vertical and horizontal edges. Blackwell, Gay and second author studied triple grid diagrams, a generalization where the points are connected by vertical, horizontal and diagonal edges. In certain cases, these determine Lagrangian surfaces in CP2\mathbb{CP}^2. However, it was difficult to construct explicit examples of triple grid diagrams, either by an approximation method or combinatorial search. We give an elegant geometric construction that produces the moduli space of all triple grid diagrams. By conditioning on the abstract graph underlying the triple grid diagram, as opposed to the grid size, the problem reduces to linear algebra and can be solved quickly in polynomial time.
