Clean-circle resolution of a Lagrangian surface immersion

ID: clean-circle-resolution-of-a-lagrangian-surface-immersion

Perturb a clean self-intersection circle of a Lagrangian immersion by a Morse function on . Its minimum and maximum give two transverse double points. Resolving both by Lagrangian surgery adds two one-handles and changes the Euler characteristic by . One neck may be glued with the orientation-reversing choice, so the resolved surface is nonorientable.
