Contact Structures on Elliptic 3-manifolds
We show that an oriented elliptic 3-manifold admits a universally tight positive contact structure if and only if the corresponding group of deck transformations on S3 (after possibly conjugating by an isometry) preserves the standard contact structure. We also relate universally tight contact structures on 3-manifolds covered by S3 to the isomorphism SO(4) = (SU(2) × SU(2))/±1. The main tool u...
متن کاملTORSION INVARIANTS OF Spin c - STRUCTURES ON 3 - MANIFOLDS
Recently there has been a surge of interest in the Seiberg-Witten invariants of 3-manifolds, see [3], [4], [7]. The Seiberg-Witten invariant of a closed oriented 3-manifold M is a function SW from the set of Spin-structures on M to Z. This function is defined under the assumption b1(M) ≥ 1 where b1(M) is the first Betti number of M ; in the case b1(M) = 1 the function SW depends on the choice o...
متن کاملBranched Spines and Contact Structures on 3-manifolds
The study of the characteristic foliation induced on an embedded surface is one of the main themes in 3-dimensional contact topology. In particular (see [10]) one can describe exactly what foliations arise (“existence results”). Moreover one knows that the characteristic foliation F = Fξ(Σ) determines uniquely the contact structure ξ in a neighbourhood of a surface Σ (“uniqueness results”). (By...
متن کاملOn $(epsilon)$ - Lorentzian para-Sasakian Manifolds
The object of this paper is to study $(epsilon)$-Lorentzian para-Sasakian manifolds. Some typical identities for the curvature tensor and the Ricci tensor of $(epsilon)$-Lorentzian para-Sasakian manifold are investigated. Further, we study globally $phi$-Ricci symmetric and weakly $phi$-Ricci symmetric $(epsilon)$-Lorentzian para-Sasakian manifolds and obtain interesting results.
متن کاملContact Structures on 5–manifolds
Using recent work on high dimensional Lutz twists and families of Weinstein structures we show that any almost contact structure on a 5–manifold is homotopic to a contact structure.
