We study Lagrangian systems with a finite number of degrees of freedom that are non-local in time. We obtain an extension of Noether theorem and Noether identities to this kind of Lagrangians. A Hamiltonian formalism is then set up for this…

A complete embedding is a symplectic embedding $\iota:Y\to M$ of a geometrically bounded symplectic manifold $Y$ into another geometrically bounded symplectic manifold $M$ of the same dimension. When $Y$ satisfies an additional finiteness…

In the usual setup, the grading on Floer homology is relative: it is unique only up to adding a constant. "Graded Lagrangian submanifolds" are Lagrangian submanifolds with a bit of extra structure, which fixes the ambiguity in the grading.…

We study collections of exact Lagrangian submanifolds respecting some uniform Riemannian bounds, which we equip with a metric naturally arising in symplectic topology (e.g. the Lagrangian Hofer metric or the spectral metric). We exhibit…

Every closed, oriented, real analytic Riemannian 3-manifold can be isometrically embedded as a special Lagrangian submanifold of a Calabi-Yau 3-fold, even as the real locus of an antiholomorphic, isometric involution. Every closed,…

Standard singularity theorems are proven in Lorentzian manifolds of arbitrary dimension n if they contain closed trapped submanifolds of arbitrary co-dimension. By using the mean curvature vector to characterize trapped submanifolds, a…

For an integrable Hamiltonian system we construct a representation of the phase space symmetry algebra over the space of functions on a Lagrangian manifold. The representation is a result of the canonical quantization of the integrable…

Given a Lagrangian submanifold $L$ in a symplectic manifold $X$, the homological Lagrangian monodromy group $\mathcal{H}_L$ describes how Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of $X$ preserving $L$ setwise act on $H_*(L)$. We begin a systematic study…
