Non-isotopic monotone Lagrangian submanifolds of Cn

Abstract

Let P be a Delzant polytope in Rk with n+k facets. We associate a closed Lagrangian submanifold L of Cn to each Delzant polytope. We prove that L is monotone if and only if and only if the polytope P is Fano. We pose the "Lagrangian version of Delzant Theorem". Then for even p and n we construct p2 monotone Lagrangian embeddings of Sp-1 × Sn-p-1 × T2 into Cn, no two of which are related by Hamiltonian isotopies. Some of these embeddings are smoothly isotopic and have equal minimal Maslov numbers, but they are not Hamiltonian isotopic. Also, we construct infinitely many non-monotone Lagrangian embeddings of S2p-1 × S2p-1 × T2 into C4p, no two of which are related by Hamiltonian isotopies.
