We introduce new invariants to the existence of Lagrangian cobordisms in ℝ4. These are obtained by studying holomorphic disks with corners on Lagrangian tangles, which are Lagrangian cobordisms with flat, immersed boundaries.
We develop appropriate sign conventions and results to characterize boundary points of 1-dimensional moduli spaces with boundaries on Lagrangian tangles. We then use these to define (SFT-like) algebraic structures that recover the previously described obstructions.
This talk is based on my thesis work under the supervision of Y. Eliashberg and on work in progress joint with J. Sabloff.
