Asymptotically Holomorphic Families of Symplectic Submanifolds

Abstract.

We construct a wide range of symplectic submanifolds in a compact symplectic manifold as the zero sets of asymptotically holomorphic sections of vector bundles obtained by tensoring an arbitrary vector bundle by large powers of the complex line bundle whose first Chern class is the symplectic form. We also show that, asymptotically, all sequences of submanifolds constructed from a given vector bundle are isotopic. Furthermore, we prove a result analogous to the Lefschetz hyperplane theorem for the constructed submanifolds.
