Least Volume Lagrangian Cycles
Saturday, February 8, 1997
4:00 PM
In this lecture we will describe new results we have obtained on
the problem of minimizing volume among Lagrangian submanifolds of
Kähler (or more generally symplectic) manifolds. We also provide
motivation for this problem involving the construction of minimal
lagrangian cycles in Kähler-Einstein manifolds. For Calabi-Yau
manifolds, this construction is a part of the mirror symmetry program.
