Augmentations, Fillings, and Clusters

Abstract: We investigate positive braid Legendrian links via a Floer-theoretic approach and prove that their augmentation varieties are cluster K2 (aka. A-) varieties. Using the exact Lagrangian cobordisms of Legendrian links in [EHK16], we prove that a large family of exact Lagrangian fillings of positive braid Legendrian links correspond to cluster seeds of their augmentation varieties. We solve the infinite-filling problem for positive braid Legendrian links; i.e., whenever a positive braid Legendrian link is not of type ADE, it admits infinitely many exact Lagrangian fillings up to Hamiltonian isotopy.
