Lagrangianity conjecture for non-Abelian Yang–Mills boundary data

Let MM be a manifold with boundary, let FMF_M be the space of Yang–Mills fields on MM, and let FMF_{\partial M} be the space of boundary fields. Let ELMEL_M be the space of solutions to the Euler–Lagrange equations, and let π:FMFM\pi:F_M\to F_{\partial M} be restriction to the boundary. Define

LM=π(ELM).L_M=\pi(EL_M).

Lagrangianity conjecture. The submanifold LML_M is Lagrangian for non-Abelian Yang–Mills theory.

The corresponding statement is established in the Abelian Maxwell case, where the space of boundary values of solutions is shown to be a Lagrangian submanifold. The non-Abelian extension remains unresolved in the supplied source.
