Abstract: For a transversal pair of closed Lagrangian submanifolds L, L' of a symplectic manifold M so that pi1(L)=pi1(L)=0=c1|pi2(M)=omega|pi2(M) and a generic almost complex structure J we construct an invariant with a high homotopical content which consists in the pages of order geq2 of a spectral sequence whose differentials provide an algebraic measure of the high-dimensional moduli spaces of pseudo-holomorpic strips of finite energy that join L and L'. When L and L' are hamiltonian isotopic, these pages coincide (up to a horizontal translation) with the terms of the Serre-spectral sequence of the path-loop fibration OmegaLoPLoL. Among other applications we prove that, in this case, each point belongs to some pseudo-holomorpic strip of symplectic area less than the Hofer distance between L and L'.
