Thomas–Yau conjecture for flow-stable Lagrangians

Let (M2n,ω,J,Ω)(M^{2n},\omega,J,\Omega) be a Calabi–Yau manifold, and let LML\subseteq M be a zero-Maslov-class, almost-calibrated Lagrangian. Suppose that LL is flow-stable, meaning that, after normalizing ϕ(L)=0\phi(L)=0, whenever LL is Hamiltonian isotopic to a connected sum L1#L2L_1\#L_2 of almost-calibrated Lagrangians, both the phase and area conditions in the definition of flow-stability hold. Thomas–Yau conjecture. The Lagrangian mean curvature flow of LL exists for all time and converges to the unique special Lagrangian in its Hamiltonian isotopy class. The conjecture proposes that flow-stability prevents finite-time singularities by ruling out decomposition into simpler Lagrangians; the stability condition is difficult to verify, and the existence of non-special-Lagrangian flow-stable examples is largely unclear.
