Diagrams for contact 5-manifolds
Fan Ding, Hansjörg Geiges, Otto van Koert
According to Giroux, contact manifolds can be described as open books whose pages are Stein manifolds. For 5-dimensional contact manifolds the pages are Stein surfaces, which permi…

Neighbourhoods and isotopies of knots in contact 3-manifolds
Hansjörg Geiges, Fan Ding
We prove a neighbourhood theorem for arbitrary knots in contact 3-manifolds. As an application we show that two topologically isotopic Legendrian knots in a contact 3-manifold beco…

Contact structures and geometric topology
Hansjörg Geiges
This is a survey on contact open books and contact Dehn surgery. The relation between these two concepts is discussed, and various applications are sketched, e.g. the monodromy of…
