Abstract
The topic of this expository master's thesis concerns proving the Hamiltonian non-isotopy between the monotone Clifford torus and the Chekanov torus in $\R^4$ by employing three Hamiltonian isotopy invariants: counting of Maslov index 2 pseudo-holomorphic discs with boundaries lying on the torus [EP], the Hamiltonian invariant associated to versal deformations and symplectic capacity [Ch1], and the Hamiltonian invariant defined by Hamiltonian monodromy group of the torus [Yau].
