Reparametrization invariant Lagrangian theories with higher derivatives are considered. We investigate the geometric structures behind these theories and construct the Hamiltonian formalism in a geometric way. The Legendre transformation…
For a Legendrian knot L in R^3 with a chosen Morse complex sequence (MCS) we construct a differential graded algebra (DGA) whose differential counts "chord paths" in the front projection of L. The definition of the DGA is motivated by…
In this paper we define invariants for primitive Legendrian knots in lens spaces L(p,q) for q not equal to 1. The main invariant is a differential graded algebra which is computed from a labeled Lagrangian projection of the pair (L(p,q),…
We find new obstructions on the topology of monotone Lagrangian submanifolds of $C^{n}$ under some hypothesis on the homology of their universal cover. In particular we show that nontrivial connected sums of manifolds of odd dimensions do…
We define ruling invariants for even-valence Legendrian graphs in standard contact three-space. We prove that rulings exist if and only if the DGA of the graph, introduced by the first two authors, has an augmentation. We set up the usual…
For $g>0$, we construct $g+1$ Legendrian embeddings of a surface of genus $g$ into $J^1(R^2)=R^5$ which lie in pairwise distinct Legendrian isotopy classes and which all have $g+1$ transverse Reeb chords ($g+1$ is the conjecturally minimal…
We study a class of Legendrian surfaces in contact five-folds by encoding their wavefronts via planar combinatorial structures. We refer to these surfaces as Legendrian weaves, and to the combinatorial objects as N-graphs. First, we develop…
We compute the Chekanov-Eliashberg contact homology of what we call the Legendrian closure of a positive braid. We also construct an augmentation for each such link diagram. Then we apply the monodromy techniques established in an earlier…
In this paper we study the uniqueness of Lagrangian fillings of the standard Legendrian sphere $\mathcal{L}_0$ in the standard contact sphere $(S^{2n-1}, \xi_{\text st})$. We show that every exact Maslov zero Lagrangian filling $L$ of…
We infer upper and lower bounds on the exponential growth constants $\alpha(\Lambda)$, $\alpha_0(\Lambda)$, and $\beta(\Lambda)$ describing the large-$n$ behavior of, respectively, the number of acyclic orientations, acyclic orientations…
Complete integrability in a symplectic setting means the existence of a Lagrangian foliation leaf-wise preserved by the dynamics. In the paper we describe complete integrability in a contact set-up as a more subtle structure: a flag of two…
Let $LG_n$ denote the Lagrangian Grassmannian parametrizing maximal isotropic (Lagrangian) subspaces of a fixed symplectic vector space of dimension $2n.$ For each strict partition $\lambda=(\lambda_1,...,\lambda_k)$ with $\lambda_1\leq n$…
We construct a combinatorial invariant of Legendrian knots in standard contact three-space. This invariant, which encodes rational relative Symplectic Field Theory and extends contact homology, counts holomorphic disks with an arbitrary…
Formal transformations somehow resembling the usual derivative are surprisingly common in computer science, with two notable examples being derivatives of regular expressions and derivatives of types. A newcomer to this list is the…
We construct the free Lagrangian of the magnetic sector of Carrollian electrodynamics. The construction relies on Helmholtz integrability condition for differential equations in a self consistent algorithm, working hand in hand with…
In this paper is established a topological constraint for monotone Lagrangian embeddings in certain complex hypersurfaces of integral K\"ahler manifolds. As an application, we prove that it is impossible to embed a connected sum of…
The equations of motion for a Lagrangian mainly refer to the acceleration equations, which can be obtained by the Euler--Lagrange equations. In the post-Newtonian Lagrangian form of general relativity, the Lagrangian systems can only…
We compute the cobordism group $\Omega^{\operatorname{lag}}(M)$ of Lagrangian immersions into a symplectic manifold $(M, \omega)$ in terms of a stable homotopy group of a Thom spectrum constructed from $M$. This generalizes a result of…
It is shown that an arbitrary singular Lagrangian theory (with first and second class constraints up to $N$-th stage in the Hamiltonian formulation) can be reformulated as a theory with at most third-stage constraints. The corresponding…
$M$-dimensional extended objects $\Sigma$ can be described by projecting a Diff $\Sigma$ invariant Hamiltonian of time-independent Hamiltonian density {\cal H} onto the Diff $\Sigma$- singlet sector, which after Hamiltonian reduction, using…
