Bennequin type inequalities in lens spaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We give criteria for an invariant of lens space links to bound the maximal self-linking number in certain tight contact lens spaces. As a corollary we extend the Franks-Williams-Morton inequality to the setting of lens spaces.Comment: 21 pages, 13 ...

Terahertz-based system for dehydration analysis of hydrogel contact lenses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The use of terahertz-based techniques has grown very fast since they are capable of performingevaluations at molecular level, being very suitable for the analysis of biological samples and bioma-terials such as those for contact lenses.

Grid Diagrams and Legendrian Lens Space Links [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Grid diagrams encode useful geometric information about knots in S^3. In particular, they can be used to combinatorially define the knot Floer homology of a knot K in S^3, and they have a straightforward connection to Legendrian representatives of K in ...

Legendrian rational unknots in lens spaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We classify Legendrian rational unknots with tight complements in the lens spaces L(p,1) up to coarse equivalence. As an example of the general case, this classification is also worked out for L(5,2).

Serratamolide is a hemolytic factor produced by Serratia marcescens [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Serratia marcescens is a common contaminant of contact lens cases and lenses. Hemolytic factors of S. marcescens contribute to the virulence of this opportunistic bacterial pathogen.

Legendrian lens space surgeries [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We show that every tight contact structure on any of the lens spaces $L(ns^2-s+1,s^2)$ with $n\geq 2$, $s\geq 1$, can be obtained by a single Legendrian surgery along a suitable Legendrian realisation of the negative torus knot $T(s,-(sn-1))$ in the ...

Dehn surgery, rational open books and knot Floer homology

open access: yes, 2012
By recent results of Baker--Etnyre--Van Horn-Morris, a rational open book decomposition defines a compatible contact structure. We show that the Heegaard Floer contact invariant of such a contact structure can be computed in terms of the knot Floer ...

A medieval fallacy: the crystalline lens in the center of the eye. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
ObjectiveTo determine whether, as most modern historians have written, ancient Greco-Roman authors believed the crystalline lens is positioned in the center of the eye.BackgroundHistorians have written that statements about cataract couching by Celsus ...
