Abstract:
Let denote the symplectic four-manifold, homotopy equivalent to the rational elliptic surface, corresponding to a fibred knot in constructed by R. Fintushel and R. J. Stern in 1998. We construct a family of nullhomologous Lagrangian tori in and prove that infinitely many of these tori have complements with mutually non-isomorphic fundamental groups if the Alexander polynomial of has some irreducible factor which does not divide for any positive integer . We also show how these tori can be non-isotopically embedded as nullhomologous Lagrangian submanifolds in other symplectic -manifolds.
