Products of isotropic, coisotropic and Lagrangian maps and of symplectic tangent images #
Let σ₁ and σ₂ be nondegenerate two-forms on M₁ and M₂, and give M₁ × M₂ the product form
pr₁*σ₁ + pr₂*σ₂ (TauCeti.SmoothTwoForm.prod). For maps f₁ : N₁ → M₁ and f₂ : N₂ → M₂, the
tangent image of the product map f₁ × f₂ at (x₁, x₂) is the product of the tangent images of
f₁ at x₁ and of f₂ at x₂, and the tangent-space form of the product is the direct sum of
those of the factors. The linear product formulas of
TauCeti.Geometry.Symplectic.Lagrangian.Constructions then show that f₁ × f₂ is isotropic,
coisotropic or Lagrangian, or has symplectic tangent images, exactly when both factors do. This
needs the factors to be differentiable, since the tangent image of a map is taken with mfderiv,
and the sources to be nonempty for the converse: a product with an empty source has empty source
and satisfies every predicate vacuously. In particular a product of Lagrangian immersions is a
Lagrangian immersion.
