%0 Journal Article %T Geodesics of Hofer's metric on the space of Lagrangian submanifolds %A Hiroshi Iriyeh %A Takashi Otofuji %J Mathematics %D 2006 %I arXiv %X We study geodesics of Hofer's metric on the space of Lagrangian submanifolds in arbitrary symplectic manifolds from the variational point of view. We give a characterization of length-critical paths with respect to this metric. As a result, we prove that if two Lagrangian submanifolds are disjoint then we cannot join them by length-minimizing geodesics. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/math/0608082v1
