Abstract

We compare two constructions of exact Lagrangian fillings of Legendrian positive braid closures, the Legendrian weaves of Casals-Zaslow, and the decomposable Lagrangian fillings, of Ekholm-Honda-K\'alm\'an and show that they coincide for large families of Lagrangian fillings. As a corollary, we obtain an explicit correspondence between Hamiltonian isotopy classes of decomposable Lagrangian fillings of Legendrian (2,n)(2,n) torus links described by Ekholm-Honda-K\'alm\'an and the weave fillings constructed by Treumann and Zaslow. We apply this result to describe the orbital structure of the K\'alm\'an loop and give a combinatorial criteria to determine the orbit size of a filling. We follow our geometric discussion with a Floer-theoretic proof of the orbital structure, where an identity studied by Euler in the context of continued fractions makes a surprise appearance. We conclude by giving a purely combinatorial description of the K\'alm\'an loop action on the fillings discussed above in terms of edge flips of triangulations.
