We prove that under certain conditions on the mean curvature and on the Kaehler angles, a compact submanifold M of real dimension 2n, immersed into a Kaehler-Einstein manifold N of complex dimension 2n, must be either a complex or a…

We establish an $h$-principle for exact Lagrangian immersions with transverse self-intersections and the minimal, or near-minimal number of double points. One corollary of our result is that any orientable closed 3-manifold admits an exact…

Let M be a compact, orientable, irreducible, atoroidal 3-manifold with boundary an incompressible torus. Techniques based on the characteristic submanifold theory are used to bound the intersection number of two slopes \alpha and \beta on…

Consider the complex linear space C^n endowed with the canonical pseudo-Hermitian form of signature (2p,2(n-p)). This yields both a pseudo-Riemannian and a symplectic structure on C^n. We prove that those submanifolds which are both…

For a transversal pair of closed Lagrangian submanifolds L, L' of a symplectic manifold M so that $\pi_{1}(L)=\pi_{1}(L')=0=c_{1}|_{\pi_{2}(M)}=\omega|_{\pi_{2}(M)}$ and a generic almost complex structure J we construct an invariant with a…

We show that Legendrian integral currents in a contact manifold that locally minimize the mass among Legendrian competitors have a regular set which is open and dense in their support. We apply this to show existence and partial regularity…

We compare Hofer's geometries on two spaces associated with a closed symplectic manifold M. The first space is the group of Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms. The second space L consists of all Lagrangian submanifolds of $M \times M$ which are…

We show that there is an hierarchy of intersection rigidity properties of sets in a closed symplectic manifold: some sets cannot be displaced by symplectomorphisms from more sets than the others. We also find new examples of rigidity of…

In "Proof of the Arnold chord conjecture in three dimensions I", we deduced the Arnold chord conjecture in three dimensions from another result, which asserts that an exact symplectic cobordism between contact three-manifolds induces a map…

The purpose of this paper is to extend the construction of the PSS-type isomorphism between the Floer homology and the quantum homology of a monotone Lagrangian submanifold $L$ of a symplectic manifold $M$, provided that the minimal Maslov…

We classify weakly exact, rational Lagrangian tori in $T^* \mathbb{T}^2- 0_{\mathbb{T}^2}$ up to Hamiltonian isotopy. This result is related to the classification theory of closed $1$-forms on $\mathbb{T}^n$ and also has applications to…
