Open book decompositions and stable Hamiltonian structures
Chris Wendl
We show that every open book decomposition of a contact 3-manifold can be represented (up to isotopy) by a smooth R-invariant family of pseudoholomorphic curves on its symplectizat…

Strongly Fillable Contact Manifolds and J-holomorphic Foliations
Chris Wendl
We prove that every strong symplectic filling of a planar contact manifold admits a symplectic Lefschetz fibration over the disk, and every strong filling of the 3-torus similarly…

Automatic Transversality and Orbifolds of Punctured Holomorphic Curves in Dimension Four
Chris Wendl
We derive a numerical criterion for J-holomorphic curves in 4-dimensional symplectic cobordisms to achieve transversality without any genericity assumption. This generalizes result…
