Example 6.25 (Normal form of cylindrical type).
Let be a pair of subsets of diffeomorphic to with . Let . Given denote by the germ of along . Consider the integral lattice in generated by:
| (64) |
Let denote the locally defined vertical coordinates on , which it is convenient to think of as -periodic coordinates. For fixed positive consider the following subset of :
| (65) |
and denote . If is a sufficiently small neighborhood of , we can assume that for every , . Therefore the projection maps to a cylinder which closes up in the and direction but not in the direction. So let us think of as this cylinder and define , which is an open subset of . The projection restricts to an open cylinder fibration:
Clearly there is an action on induced by , whose moment map is . Let and let be the corresponding reduced space. Let be the reduced fibration. We denote the fibre of by .
For , construct , which is a cylinder fibration with shorter cylinders, and define its closure . Define the open set , which we can think of as the union of the ends of the cylinders. Suppose now that we have an open neighborhood of and a smooth invariant Lagrangian submersion with cylindrical fibres satisfying: , and . Then we can define , , and the piecewise smooth function to be the map

Clearly, if we think of as playing the role of , is a Lagrangian fibration of type (62). Notice that the fibres of coincide with the fibres of inside , in particular is smooth restricted to . In some sense, the fibres of are straight towards their ends (cf. Figure 11).
We now compactify by adding the singularities. Let and let be the Lagrangian fibration induced by the standard projection on . Clearly and therefore are open subsets of . When , the fibre is an open cylinder, with ends at and in the -direction, otherwise is a torus. From the results in [1], can be compactified to a symplectic manifold by adding the singularity at the ends of the cylinders when . The fibration extends to a smooth fibration of generic-singular type. The open subset extends to an open neighborhood of the singular set . The fibres of coincide with the fibres of toward their ends and therefore may be extended to make it coincide with on . More precisely, define and . Now we can define

Clearly is a well defined Lagrangian fibration satisfying Assumption 6.22. The zero section of is, perhaps after a change of coordinates in the base, a section of . If is a smooth fibre of , with , let be the basis of determined by . We call a normal form of cylindrical type.
The set can be visualized in Figure 11 as the square with open top and bottom. The straight light-colored lines are the fibres of and the fibres of are depicted as dark lines. The upper and lower rectangular regions represent the components of .
