    In this work the author computes the Riemann curvature of the metric defined on an exact isotopy class of positive Lagrangian submanifolds. Given an oriented smooth manifold \(L\) of dimension \(n\), let \(\mathcal{L}\) denote the space of oriented Lagrangian submanifolds in a (almost Calabi-Yau) symplectic manifold \(X\) of dimension \(2n\). Let also \(\mathcal{H}_{T}\) denote the space of smooth maps \(h:\Gamma \rightarrow \mathbb{R}\), \(\Gamma \in \mathcal{L}\), satisfying a certain normalization. Then the metric is defined as \((h,k)=\int_{\Gamma}hk\operatorname {Re}(\Omega)\), where \(\Omega\) is a nowhere-vanishing holomorphic \(n\) form. The main result of the paper is to give a formula for the curvature of this metric. The author also shows that all sectional curvatures are non-positive.
