Legendrian Contact Homology in P X R

Tobias Ekholm, John Etnyre, Michael G. Sullivan

A rigorous foundation for the contact homology of Legendrian submanifolds in a contact manifold of the form where is an exact symplectic manifold is established. T…

Orientations in Legendrian Contact Homology and Exact Lagrangian Immersions

Tobias Ekholm, John Etnyre, Michael G. Sullivan

We show how to orient moduli spaces of holomorphic disks with boundary on an exact Lagrangian immersion of a spin manifold into complex n-space in a coherent manner. This allows us…

Planar open book decompositions and contact structures

John B. Etnyre

In this note we observe that while all overtwisted contact structures on compact 3--manifolds are supported by planar open book decompositions, not all contact structures are. This…

Legendrian Submanifolds in and Contact Homology

Tobias Ekholm, John Etnyre, Michael G. Sullivan

Contact homology for Legendrian submanifolds in standard contact -space is rigorously defined using moduli spaces of holomorphic disks with Lagrangian boundary conditions i…
