Equivariant Lagrangian displacements

Abstract

This paper proves that certain monotone Lagrangians in the standard symplectic vector space cannot be displaced by a Hamiltonian isotopy which commutes with the antipodal map. The method of proof is to develop a Borel equivariant version of the quantum cohomology of Biran and Cornea, and prove it is sensitive to equivariant displacements. The Floer--Euler class of Biran and Khanevsky appears as a term in the equivariant differential in certain cases.
