Multi-grid diagrams of Lagrangian surfaces in toric 4-manifolds

Abstract: We introduce a diagrammatic construction of Lagrangian surfaces embedded in symplectic toric 4-manifolds. In this talk, we will explore several examples of diagrams and their corresponding Lagrangians, including Evan's recent "non-squeezable Klein bottle" in S^2xS^2. We will additionally discuss the main ideas of the construction and several unsolved problems that could be approached diagrammatically. This is joint work with Laura Wakelin.
