Symplectic path intersections and the Leray index
The paper gives a generalization of the Maslov index which applies to symplectic paths. The new index is shown to satisfy five basic axioms. These are: (1) homotopy invariance; (2) additivity with respect to concatenation; (3) dimensional additivity; (4) it is zero in strata; (5) it equals the spectral flow of a family of symmetric matrices. The construction based on properties of the Leray index for pairs of Lagrangian paths. It is purely topological. A brief overview of Leray index is presented. For the entire collection see [Zbl 1005.00051].
