Least positive Liouville period

ID: least-positive-liouville-period

For a nonzero discrete Liouville period group, this is its positive generator. In Euclidean symplectic space, the same group is obtained from signed symplectic areas of disks with boundary on , by the Stokes theorem and contractibility of the ambient space. A product of circles of common radius is a rational Lagrangian submanifold with . Translation changes a primitive only by an exact form and hence leaves the period group unchanged.
