Abstract

This is the first of a series of papers in preparation in which we study the Hamiltonian perturbed contact instantons with Legendrian boundary condition and its applications. In this paper, we prove that the asymptotic charge of contact instantons at the punctures under the Legendrian boundary condition vanishes, which eliminates the phenomenon of the appearance of `spiraling cusp instanton along a Reeb core'. This removes the only remaining obstacle towards the compactification and the Fredholm theory of the moduli space of contact instantons in the open string case, which plagues the closed string case. We also extend the a priori elliptic coercive estimates for the contact instantons with boundary, and prove an asymptotic exponential $C^\infty$-convergence result at a puncture under the uniform $C^1$ bound. In a sequel to the present paper, we study the $C^1$ estimates by defining a proper notion of energy for the contact instantons, and develop a Fredholm theory and construct a Gromov-type compactification of the moduli space of contact instantons with Legendrian boundary condition and of finite energy, and apply them to problems in contact topology and dynamics.

Extended Future Tube Conjecture for Unipotent Subgroups

Let $\Omega$ be the Lorentz future cone in $\mathbb{R}^{d+1}$ with respect to the Lorentz product and let $T^M$ be the $M$-fold product of the future tube $T=\mathbb{R}^{d+1}+i\Omega$. The Lorentz group $\mathrm{SO}_0(1,d)$ acts diagonally on $T^M$, and its complexification $\mathrm{SO}(1,d)^\mathbb{C}$ acts on $\mathbb{C}^{(d+1)\times M}$. We prove that the domain $G^\mathbb{C}\cdot T^M$ is a Stein manifold for any connected unipotent subgroup $G$ of $\mathrm{SO}_0(1,d)$.

The First Correction Term in the Asymptotic Expansion of Bohr--Sommerfeld Lagrangian States

Let $\Lambda$ be a compact Bohr--Sommerfeld Lagrangian submanifold of a compact K\"ahler manifold equipped with a holomorphic prequantum line bundle. We study the asymptotic expansion of the Lagrangian states associated with $\Lambda$. In particular, we compute explicitly the first nontrivial correction term and show that it is expressed in terms of geometric invariants of the ambient K\"ahler manifold and the Lagrangian submanifold, including their scalar curvatures, the second fundamental form, and the mean curvature. As a consequence, we obtain the corresponding second-order asymptotic formula for the $L^2$-norm of the Lagrangian states.

Classification of Legendrian doubles and suspensions

We define a construction of Legendrians inside contact manifolds that arise by doubling an exact Lagrangian filling in the page of an open book decomposition. This can be seen as a generalization of a previous construction by Courte and Ekholm to arbitrary open books. These Legendrians, called Legendrian doubles, are shown to admit regular flexible exact Lagrangian fillings, and they are thus classified up to Legendrian isotopy by classical data. Finally, we show that the Legendrian suspension construction, as defined by Arikan and the author in previous work,-this is a Legendrian contained inside a page of an open book that is obtained by using Seidel's suspension of Lefschetz fibrations- is a Legendrian double.
