Abstract:
We study the lagrangian embedding as a fixed point set of anti-symplectic involution on a symplectic 4-manifold . Suppose the fixed loci of are the disjoint union of smooth Riemann surfaces ; then each component becomes a lagrangian submanifold. Furthermore, if one of the components is a Riemann surface of genus , then its quotient has vanishing Seiberg-Witten invariants. We will discuss some examples which allow an anti-symplectic involution with lagrangian fixed loci.
