In this short note we observe that the boundary of a properly embedded compact exact Lagrangian sub-manifolds in a subcritical Weinstein domain $X$ necessarily admits Reeb chords. The existence of this Reeb chords either follows from an obstruction to the deformation of the boundary to a cylinder over a Legendrian sub-manifold or from the fact that the wrapped Floer homology of the Lagrangian vanishes once this boundary have been collared.

We study the combinatorial Reeb flow on the boundary of a four-dimensional convex polytope. We establish a correspondence between combinatorial Reeb orbits for a polytope, and ordinary Reeb orbits for a smoothing of the polytope, respecting action and Conley-Zehnder index. One can then use a computer to find all combinatorial Reeb orbits up to a given action and Conley-Zehnder index. We present some results of experiments testing Viterbos conjecture and related conjectures. In particular, we have found some new examples of polytopes with systolic ratio $1$.
We show that a nondegenerate tight contact form on the 3-sphere has exactly two simple closed Reeb orbits if and only if the differential in linearized contact homology vanishes. Moreover, in this case the Floquet multipliers and Conley-Zehnder indices of the two Reeb orbits agree with those of a suitable irrational ellipsoid in 4-space.
Lagrangian cobordisms between Legendrian knots arise in Symplectic Field Theory and impose an interesting and not well-understood relation on Legendrian knots. There are some known elementary building blocks for Lagrangian cobordisms that are smoothly the attachment of $0$- and $1$-handles. An important question is whether every pair of non-empty Legendrians that are related by a connected Lagrangian cobordism can be related by a ribbon Lagrangian cobordism, in particular one that is decomposable into a composition of these elementary building blocks. We will describe these and other combinatorial building blocks as well as some geometric methods, involving the theory of satellites, to construct Lagrangian cobordisms. We will then survey some known results, derived through Heegaard Floer Homology and contact surgery, that may provide a pathway to proving the existence of nondecomposable (nonribbon) Lagrangian cobordisms.
Let k>2. We prove that the cotangent bundles of oriented homotopy (2k-1)-spheres S and S are symplectomorphic only if the classes defined by S and S agree up to sign in the quotient group of oriented homotopy spheres modulo those which bound parallelizable manifolds. We also show that if the connect sum of real projective space of dimension (4k-1) and a homotopy (4k-1)-sphere admits a Lagrangian embedding in complex projective space, then twice the homotopy sphere framed bounds. The proofs build on previous work of Abouzaid and the authors, in combination with a new cut-and-paste argument, which also gives rise to some interesting explicit exact Lagrangian embeddings into plumbings. As another application, we show that there are re-parameterizations of the zero-section in the cotangent bundle of a sphere which are not Hamiltonian isotopic (as maps, rather than as submanifolds) to the original zero-section.
We construct families of imaginary special Lagrangian cylinders near transverse Maslov index $0$ or $n$ intersection points of positive Lagrangian submanifolds in a general Calabi-Yau manifold. Hence, we obtain geodesics of open positive Lagrangian submanifolds near such intersection points. Moreover, this result is a first step toward the non-perturbative construction of geodesics of closed positive Lagrangian submanifolds. Also, we introduce a method for proving $C^{1,1}$ regularity of geodesics of positive Lagrangians at the non-smooth locus. This method is used to show that $C^{1,1}$ geodesics of positive Lagrangian spheres persist under small perturbations of endpoints, improving the regularity of a previous result of the authors. In particular, we obtain the first examples of $C^{1,1}$ solutions to the positive Lagrangian geodesic equation in arbitrary dimension that are not invariant under isometries. Along the way, we study geodesics of positive Lagrangian linear subspaces in a complex vector space, and prove an a priori existence result in the case of Maslov index $0$ or $n.$ Throughout the paper, the cylindrical transform introduced in previous work of the authors plays a key role.
