Lagrangian Mapping
Let L be a Lagrangian submanifold of a symplectic manifold (K,ω) given by an immersion i : L ↪ K (i is called a Lagrangian immersion). Let π : K ↠ B give a Lagrangian fibration of K. The composite (π ○ i) : L ↪ K ↠ B is a Lagrangian mapping. The critical value set of π ○ i is called a caustic.
Two Lagrangian maps (π1 ○ i1) : L1 ↪ K1 ↠ B1 and (π2 ○ i2) : L2 ↪ K2 ↠ B2 are called Lagrangian equivalent if there exist diffeomorphisms σ, τ and ν such that both sides of the diagram given on the right commute, and τ preserves the symplectic form. Symbolically:
where τ*ω2 denotes the pull back of ω2 by τ.
