A note on scaling asymptotics for Bohr-Sommerfeld Lagrangian submanifolds

Abstract

An important problem in geometric quantization is that of quantizing certain classes of Lagrangian submanifolds, so-called Bohr-Sommerfeld Lagrangian submanifolds, equipped with a smooth half-density. A procedure for this in the complex projective setting is, roughly speaking, to apply the Szego kernel of the quantizing line bundle to a certain induced delta function supported on the submanifold. If the quantizing line bundle L is replaced by its k-th tensor power, and k tends to infinity, the resulting quantum states u_k concentrate asymptotically on the submanifold. This note deals with the scaling asymptotics of the u_k's along the submanifold; in particular, we point out a natural factorization in the corresponding asymptotic expansion, and provide some remainder estimates.

Weak Relative Calabi-Yau Structures for Legendrian Contact Homology

Legendrian Contact Homology (LCH) and its augmentations are important invariants of Legendrian submanifolds, and for Legendrian knots in the standard contact 3-space in particular. We increase understanding of the algebraic structure of LCH by generalizing the duality isomorphism and long exact sequence for linearized LCH for Legendrian knots to a weak relative Calabi-Yau structure for $A_\infty$ bimodules over the positive augmentation category.

Contractible Closed Reeb Orbits on Prequantization Bundles under Weak Index Conditions

In this paper we study the multiplicity of contractible closed Reeb orbits on prequantization circle bundles. Building on the existing multiplicity result Theorem 1.3 for closed Reeb orbits on prequantization $S^1$-bundles, we weaken the index assumptions by requiring only that the supporting contact form has no contractible periodic Reeb orbits with mean Conley-Zehnder index zero and no contractible good periodic Reeb orbits with Conley-Zehnder index 0, and we obtain a lower bound for the number of geometrically distinct contractible closed Reeb orbits carried by contact forms $α$ on a prequantization $S^1$-bundle under certain natural topological assumptions (Theorem 1.6). In dimension five we further relax the index assumptions and show that, under a mild index condition imposed only on simple contractible periodic orbits and the same topological assumptions on the prequantization $S^1$-bundle, every non-degenerate supporting contact form carries at least $\dim H_*(B;\mathbb{Q})$ geometrically distinct contractible closed Reeb orbits (Theorem 1.11), in agreement with the conjectural lower bound for prequantization bundles.

Multiplicity of brake Reeb orbits on real prequantization bundles

We prove multiplicity results for geometrically distinct brake Reeb orbits on real prequantization $S^1$-bundles under geometric and dynamical assumptions. The lower bounds are expressed in terms of the sum of the mod-two Betti numbers of the real locus of the base. Our proofs combine Lagrangian Rabinowitz Floer homology with the index iteration theory for brake orbits. As an application, we obtain a sharp lower bound for the number of brake geodesics on Finsler spheres with pinched flag curvature.
