The moduli space of complex Lagrangian submanifolds

Abstract

Following an earlier paper on the differential-geometric structure of the moduli space of special Lagrangian submanifolds in a Calabi-Yau manifold, we follow an analogous approach for compact complex Lagrangian submanifolds of a (Kählerian) complex symplectic manifold. The natural geometric structure on the moduli space is a special Kähler metric, but we offer a different point of view on the local differential geometry of these, based on the structure of a submanifold of $V\times V$ (where $V$ is a symplectic vector space) which is Lagrangian with respect to two constant symplectic forms. As an application, we show using this point of view how the hyperkähler metric of Cecotti, Ferrara and Girardello associated to a special Kähler structure fits into the Legendre transform construction of Lindström and Ro\v cek.
