Remark 3.5.
A more Floer theoretic argument that is homologous to , which does not appeal to directly, can be sketched as follows. We assume are three unobstructed Lagrangians mutually isomorphic in , and . Of course, the self Floer cohomologies of are all isomorphic, and is a necessary condition if the class admits any almost calibrated representative at all. We consider representing the generators of , such that at the level of Floer cohomology
For simplicity we first assume almost calibratedness, so that , and there is no ambiguity for these generators. Notice the compositions provide generators of , , . Consider the -dimensional moduli spaces of holomorphic discs with corners at and the self intersection points corresponding to the bounding cochains. The corresponding universal family provides an -dimensional current, whose boundary comes from disc bubbling and disc breaking. Most of the boundary contributions are eliminated by the Mauer-Cartan equation of the bounding cochains, the closedness of , and support dimension reasons, and only three boundary contributions survive. These are the -dimensional bordism currents between (resp. and ) constructed from the universal family of holomorphic curves associated to the generators (resp. and ). We can identify these as . The upshot is that Floer theory explicitly provides the -dimensional current that exhibits the homological relation between and .
In general without assuming almost calibratedness, then can be nonzero. Then we need some extra -dimensional moduli spaces to account for the non-uniqueness of cohomological representatives of , an issue quite similar to section 3.1.2. A subtle new issue is that the moduli space receives new boundary contributions involving the products (this shorthand notation indicates the presence of bounding cochain elements, cf. (73)) of . The three cyclic permutations of produce three products, which are elements in and respectively, and the -dimensional moduli of polygons with one corner at the intersections and the other corners at bounding cochain elements contribute to . Now by the relation, and the closedness of ,
Writing and , we see is -closed, so by the assumption that , it is in fact for some . We can then produce an -dimensional moduli space, from polygons with a corner at , and other corners at the bounding cochain elements. Completely analogously, one can produce two other -dimensional moduli spaces from and . Combining the -dimensional universal families over the -dimensional moduli spaces, results in an explicit bordism current between and .
