A Lagrangian submanifold of a -dimensional symplectic manifold is an embedded -dimensional submanifold on which the symplectic form restricts to zero. The dimension requirement distinguishes it from a lower-dimensional isotropic submanifold.
A differential one-form on gives an embedded section of its cotangent bundle, since . Directly from the canonical one-form on a cotangent bundle,
Its graph already has half the ambient dimension. Therefore
This proves the graph of a closed one-form is Lagrangian criterion, in both directions.
On , the diagonal fundamental vector field is nonzero, since the fixed-point set lies at moment map values and . The nondegenerate bilinear form and imply , so is a regular value. By the regular level set theorem, is a three-dimensional embedded submanifold of the four-dimensional Complex projective plane.
At , set . Then for every , so , the symplectic orthogonal complement. This complement is one-dimensional and , giving
Thus the level set is a coisotropic submanifold, neither an isotropic submanifold nor a Lagrangian submanifold. Indeed an isotropic subspace of a symplectic vector space in dimension four has dimension at most two, whereas . Its characteristic line field is generated by the diagonal circle action.
