Legendrian non-squeezing via microsheaves

Symplectic Geometry 2025-09-23 v2

Abstract

We show that Legendrian pre-quantization lifts of many non-exact Lagrangian submanifolds in Cn\mathbb{C}^n retain some quantitative rigidity from the symplectic base. In particular, they cannot be moved by Legendrian isotopy into an arbitrarily small pre-quantized cylinder. This is a high dimensional generalization of results of Dimitroglou Rizell--Sullivan in dimension 3. In this setting, we give a new proof of non-squeezing using normal rulings, and in high dimension, we obtain our results using a category of (micro)sheaves associated to a Legendrian submanifold of pre-quantizations.
