Lagrangian surgeries were first discovered by Leonid Polterovich when two Lagrangian submanifolds intersect at a point transversally. Fukaya, Oh, Ohta and Ono observed a cone relation between the two Lagrangians and the surgered Lagrangian, and this cone relation has been fundamental in the understanding of Fukaya categories. I will explain a generalization of Polterovich’s construction to the case when the two Lagrangians intersect cleanly, and give a cone relation for the surgered Lagrangian. This surgery formula helps us compute the connecting maps in the cone relation recently proved by Cheuk-Yu Mak and myself, and thus completes the proof of the Huybrechts-Thomas conjecture on projective twists in Fukaya categories.
