Legendrian knots, transverse knots and combinatorial Floer homology

Peter Ozsvath, Zoltan Szabo, Dylan Thurston

Using the combinatorial approach to knot Floer homology, we define an invariant for Legendrian knots in the three-sphere, which takes values in link Floer homology. This invariant…

Rational blow-downs and smoothings of surface singularities

Andras I. Stipsicz, Zoltan Szabo, Jonathan Wahl

In this paper we give a necessary combinatorial condition for a negative--definite plumbing tree to be suitable for rational blow--down, or to be the graph of a complex surface sin…

On combinatorial link Floer homology

Ciprian Manolescu, Peter Ozsvath, Zoltan Szabo +1

Link Floer homology is an invariant for links defined using a suitable version of Lagrangian Floer homology. In an earlier paper, this invariant was given a combinatorial descripti…

The Dehn surgery characterization of the trefoil and the figure eight knot

Peter Ozsvath, Zoltan Szabo

We give a Dehn surgery characterization of the trefoil and the figure eight knots. These results are gotten by combining surgery formulas in Heegaard Floer homology from an earlier…

Heegaard diagrams and Floer homology

Peter Ozsvath, Zoltan Szabo

We review the construction of Heegaard Floer homology for closed three-manifolds and also for knots and links in the three-sphere. We also discuss three applications of this invari…

Link Floer homology and the Thurston norm

Peter Ozsvath, Zoltan Szabo

We show that link Floer homology detects the Thurston norm of a link complement. As an application, we show that the Thurston polytope of an alternating link is dual to the Newton…
