We introduce a notion of vanishing Maslov index for lagrangian varifolds and lagrangian integral cycles in a Calabi-Yau manifold. We construct mass-decreasing flows of lagrangian varifolds and lagrangian cycles which satisfy this condition. The flow of cycles converges, at infinite time, to a sum of special lagrangian …

Such a "tropical current" Tnp(VT)\mathscr{T}_n^p(V_{\mathbb{T}}) will not be an integration current along any analytic set, si…
