Abstract: Let $ X$ be a compact real analytic manifold, and let $ T^*X$ be its cotangent bundle. Let $ Sh(X)$ be the triangulated dg category of bounded, constructible complexes of sheaves on $ X$. In this paper, we develop a Fukaya $ A_\infty$-category $ Fuk(T^*X)$ whose objects are exact, not necessarily compact Lagrangian branes in the cotangent bundle. We write $ Tw Fuk(T^*X)$ for the $ A_\infty$-triangulated envelope of $ Fuk(T^*X)$ consisting of twisted complexes of Lagrangian branes. Our main result is that $ Sh(X)$ quasi-embeds into $ Tw Fuk(T^*X)$ as an $ A_\infty$-category. Taking cohomology gives an embedding of the corresponding derived categories.
