The nearby Lagrangian conjecture asserts that every closed exact embedded Lagrangian submanifold of the cotangent bundle
of a closed connected smooth manifold
is Hamiltonian isotopic to the zero
section. Here closed means compact without boundary, and exactness means that the canonical 1-form
restricts to
on the submanifold. The isotopy is required to have compact
support in the cotangent bundle.
