Abstract: In this paper, we prove that if the area functional of a surface $Sigm{a}^2$ in a symplectic manifold $$ has a critical point or has a compatible stable point in the same cohomology class, then it must be $J$-holomorphic. Inspired by a classical result of Lawson-Simons, we show how various restrictions of the stability assumption to variations of metrics in the space "projectively induced" metrics are enough to give the desired conclusion.
