Rational symplectic field theory over Z₂ for exact Lagrangian cobordisms

Abstract: We construct a version of rational Symplectic Field Theory for pairs

(X, L)

, where

X

is an exact symplectic manifold, where

L s u b s e t X

is an exact Lagrangian submanifold with components subdivided into

k

subsets, and where both

X

and

L

have cylindrical ends. The theory associates to

(X, L)

a

-graded chain complex of vector spaces over

, filtered with

k

filtration levels. The corresponding

k

-level spectral sequence is invariant under deformations of

(X, L)

and has the following property: if

(X, L)

is obtained by joining a negative end of a pair

(X^{'}, L^{'})

to a positive end of a pair

(X^{″}, L^{″})

, then there are natural morphisms from the spectral sequences of

(X^{'}, L^{'})

and of

(X^{″}, L^{″})

to the spectral sequence of

(X, L)

. As an application, we show that if

L a m b d a s u b s e t Y

is a Legendrian submanifold of a contact manifold then the spectral sequences associated to

(Y i m e s R, L a m b d a_{k}^{s} i m e s R)

, where

Y i m e s R

is the symplectization of

Y

and where

L a m b d a_{k}^{s} s u b s e t Y

is the Legendrian submanifold consisting of

s

parallel copies of

L a m b d a

subdivided into

k

subsets, give Legendrian isotopy invariants of

L a m b d a

.
