The Weinstein neighborhood theorem states that if is a compact Lagrangian submanifold of , then neighborhoods of in and of the zero section in its cotangent bundle are symplectomorphic. The symplectomorphism restricts to the identity on , and the canonical form on is taken with the sign matching the chosen convention.
