Symplectic critical surfaces in Kähler surfaces
Abstract
Description
Let $M$ be a Kähler surface and $Σ$ be a closed symplectic surface which is smoothly immersed in $M$. Let $α$ be the Kähler angle of $Σ$ in $M$. We first deduce the Euler-Lagrange equation of the functional $L=\int_Σ\frac{1}{\cosα}dμ$ in the class of symplectic surfaces. It is $\cos^3αH=(J(J\nabla\cosα)^\top)^\bot$, where $H$ is the mean curvature vector of $Σ$ in $M$, $J$ is the complex structure compatible with the Kähler form $ω$ in $M$, which is an elliptic equation. We then study the properties of the equation.
