The strong Viterbo conjecture and various flavours of duality in Lagrangian products

Abstract

In this note we analyze normalized symplectic capacities for two different notions of duality in Lagrangian products. Let $\Phi$ be a $n$-tuple of Young functions with Legendre transform $n$-tuple ${\Phi }^{\ast }$ and $K_{\Phi }$ the unit ball for the Luxemburg metric induced by $\Phi$. We can consider the ``dual functional" Lagrangian product $K_{\Phi }{\times }_L{K}_{{\Phi }^{\ast }}$ and the usual polar dual Lagrangian product $K_{\Phi }{\times }_L{K}_{\Phi }^{\circ }$. We show that for the former, all normalized symplectic capacities agree, while for the latter, we give a lower bound depending on $\Phi$. In particular, under certain conditions on the $n$-tuple $\Phi$, we get that $c(K_{\Phi }{\times }_L{K}_{\Phi }^{\circ })=4$, for any normalized symplectic capacity, that is, the strong Viterbo conjecture holds.
