Normal Invariant Of Nearby Lagrangians Via Twisted Generating Functions

Abstract

I will present some new constraints on the smooth structure of nearby Lagrangians. The method of proof uses homotopical methods and Waldhausen's algebraic K-theory of spaces. Joint work in progress with M. Abouzaid, S. Courte and T. Kragh.
