Canonical contact structures on some singularity links

open access: yes, 2014
We identify the canonical contact structure on the link of a simple elliptic or cusp singularity by drawing a Legendrian handlebody diagram of one of its Stein fillings.

Singularities of spherical surface in R4

open access: yesOpen Mathematics
In this article, we mainly study the geometric properties of spherical surface of a curve on a hypersurface Σ\Sigma in four-dimensional Euclidean space.

Contact boundaries of hypersurface singularities and of complex polynomials

open access: yes, 2003
We survey some recent results concerning the behaviour of the contact structure defined on the boundary of a complex isolated hypersurface singularity or on the boundary at infinity of a complex polynomial.Comment: 8 pages; to be published in the ...

Adapted complex tubes on the symplectization of pseudo-Hermitian manifolds

open access: yes, 2010
Let $(M,\omega)$ be a pseudo-Hermitian space of real dimension $2n+1$, that is $\RManBase$ is a $\CR-$manifold of dimension $2n+1$ and $\omega$ is a contact form on $M$ giving the Levi distribution $HT(M)\subset TM$.

A class of 3-dimensional contact metric manifolds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We classify the contact metric 3-manifolds that satisfy ||grad{\lambda}||=1 and \nabla_{{\xi}}{\tau}=2a{\tau}{\phi}.Comment: 12 pages ...

Trapped Reeb orbits do not imply periodic ones

open access: yes, 2013
We construct a contact form on R^{2n+1}, n at least 2, equal to the standard contact form outside a compact set and defining the standard contact structure on all of R^{2n+1}, which has trapped Reeb orbits, including a torus invariant under the Reeb flow,

On symplectic fillings

open access: yes, 2004
In this note we make several observations concerning symplectic fillings. In particular we show that a (strongly or weakly) semi-fillable contact structure is fillable and any filling embeds as a symplectic domain in a closed symplectic manifold. We also

On overtwisted, right-veering open books

open access: yes, 2012
We exhibit infinitely many overtwisted, right-veering, non-destabilizable open books, thus providing infinitely many counterexamples to a conjecture of Honda-Kazez-Matic.
