The Bott–Samelson theorem for positive Legendrian isotopies

Abstract: Abstract. The classical Bott-Samelson theorem states that if on a Riemannian manifold all geodesics issuing from a certain point return to this point, then the universal cover of the manifold has the cohomology ring of a compact rank one symmetric space. This result on geodesic flows has been generalized to Reeb flows and partially to positive Legendrian isotopies by FrauenfelderLabrousse-Schlenk. We prove the full theorem for positive Legendrian isotopies.

“…The definition of swappability makes sense for Lagrangians as well as for stops, where it turns out to have been studied before: Theorem 1.2 ( [13,8]). Let Λ = S * p Q ⊂ S * Q = ∂ ∞ T * Q be a swappable cosphere fiber.…”

“…Finer versions are proven in [19,Chapter 7]. All these results hold true for Reeb flows on spherizations, even time-dependent ones, see [46,36]. Here, • ∞ denotes the supremum norm induced by the operator norm on endomorphisms of T M that is determined by any Riemannian metric on M. The limit defining Γ + exists because the sequence (log dφ n ∞ ) is subadittive.…”
