Abstract

The obstruction to construct a Lagrangian bundle over a fixed integral affine manifold was constructed by Dazord and Delzant (J Differ Geom 26:223–251, 1987) and shown to be given by ‘twisted’ cup products in Sepe (Differ Geom Appl 29(6): 787–800, 2011). This paper uses the topology of universal Lagrangian bundles, which classify Lagrangian bundles topologically [cf. Sepe in J Geom Phys 60:341–351, 2010], to reinterpret this obstruction as the vanishing of a differential on the second page of a Leray-Serre spectral sequence. Using this interpretation, it is shown that the obstruction of Dazord and Delzant depends on an important cohomological invariant of the integral affine structure on the base space, called the radiance obstruction, which was introduced by Goldman and Hirsch (Trans Am Math Soc 286(2):629–649, 1984). Some examples, related to non-degenerate singularities of completely integrable Hamiltonian systems, are discussed.
