abstract

In this paper, we classify up to Hamiltonian isotopy Lagrangian tori that split as a product of circles in $S^2 \times S^2$, when the latter is equipped with a non-monotone split symplectic form. We show that this classification is equivalent to a problem of mathematical billiards in rectangles. We give many applications, among others: (1) answering a question on Lagrangian packing numbers raised by Polterovich--Shelukhin, (2) studying the topology of the space of Lagrangian tori, and (3) determining which split tori are images under symplectic ball embeddings of Chekanov or product tori in $\mathbb{R}^4$.

Nodal tangles connect any two toric moment maps on a closed symplectic four-manifold, and give an exact displacement-energy formula for many toric fibres plus a recipe for Lagrangian torus knots.
