Weinstein-trisection characterization of symplectic surfaces
Weinstein-trisection characterization of symplectic surfaces
Let be a symplectic -manifold with a Weinstein trisection, and let be a connected, oriented surface satisfying
Weinstein-trisection characterization conjecture. The surface is isotopic to a symplectic surface if and only if it is isotopic into transverse bridge position with respect to some Weinstein trisection of .
The forward implication is suggested by the surrounding discussion, while the reverse implication follows from an adaptation of an earlier proposition in the paper. The statement is presented as a conjectural converse in the general Weinstein-trisection setting.
