On Legendrian Surgeries
نویسنده
چکیده
We use the Ozsváth-Szabó contact invariants to distinguish between tight contact structures obtained by Legendrian surgeries on stabilized Legendrian links in tight contact 3-manifolds. We also discuss the implication of our result on the tight contact structures on the Brieskorn homology spheres −Σ(2, 3, 6n − 1).

Legendrian Surgeries on Stabilized Legendrian Links
We use Seiberg-Witten monopoles and Ozsváth-Szabó invariants to distinguish between tight contact structures obtained by Legendrian surgeries on stabilized Legendrian links in tight contact 3-manifolds.
متن کاملGluing Tight Contact Structures
We prove gluing theorems for tight contact structures. As special cases, we rederive gluing theorems due to V. Colin and S. Makar-Limanov and present an algorithm for determining whether a given contact structure on a handlebody is tight. As applications, we construct a tight contact structure on a genus 4 handlebody which becomes overtwisted after Legendrian −1 surgery and study certain Legend...
متن کاملClassification of Legendrian Knots and Links
The aim of this paper is to use computer program to generate and classify Legendrian knots and links. Modifying the algorithm in [11], we write a program in Java to generate all grid diagrams of up to size 10. Since classification of Legendrian links up to Legendrian isotopy is equivalent to grid diagrams modulo a set of Cromwell moves including translation, commutation and X:NE,X:SW (de)stabil...
متن کاملTHE CONTACT HOMOLOGY OF LEGENDRIAN SUBMANIFOLDS IN R2n+1
We define the contact homology for Legendrian submanifolds in standard contact (2n + 1)-space using moduli spaces of holomorphic disks with Lagrangian boundary conditions in complex n-space. This homology provides new invariants of Legendrian isotopy which indicate that the theory of Legendrian isotopy is very rich. Indeed, in [4] the homology is used to detect infinite families of pairwise non...
متن کاملLegendrian Mirrors and Legendrian Isotopy
We resolve a question of Fuchs and Tabachnikov by showing that there is a Legendrian knot in standard contact R with zero Maslov number which is not Legendrian isotopic to its mirror. The proof uses the differential graded algebras of Chekanov. A Legendrian knot in standard contact R is a knot which is everywhere tangent to the two-plane distribution induced by the contact one-form dz− y dx. Tw...
