Abstract: We prove two main results: (a) Suppose $L$ is a closed, embedded, exact special Lagrangian $m$-fold in ${mathbbC}^m$ for $mge3$ asymptotic at infinity to the union $P{i}_{1}cupP{i}_2$ of two transverse special Lagrangian planes $P{i}_1,P{i}_2$ in ${mathbbC}^m$. Then $L$ is one of the explicit 'Lawlor neck' family of examples found by Lawlor (Invent. math. 95, 1989). (b) Suppose $L$ is a closed, embedded, exact Lagrangian mean curvature flow expander in ${mathbbC}^m$ for $mge3$ asymptotic at infinity to the union $P{i}_{1}cupP{i}_2$ of two transverse Lagrangian planes $P{i}_1,P{i}_2$ in ${mathbbC}^m$. Then $L$ is one of the explicit family of examples found by Joyce, Lee and Tsui, arXiv:0801.3721. If instead $L$ is immersed rather than embedded, the only extra possibility in (a),(b) is $L=P{i}_{1}cupP{i}_2$. Our methods, which are new and can probably be used to prove other similar uniqueness theorems, involve $J$-holomorphic curves, Lagrangian Floer cohomology, and Fukaya categories from symplectic topology. When $m=2$, (a) is easy to prove using hyperkahler geometry, and (b) is proved by Lotay and Neves, arXiv:1208.2729.
