Abstract

We investigate deformations of lagrangian manifolds with singularities. We introduce a complex similar to the de Rham-complex whose cohomology calculates deformation spaces. This cohomology turns out to be constructible in many cases. Examples of singular lagrangian varieties are presented and deformations are calculated explicitly.
