Orbifold adjunction formula and symplectic cobordisms between lens spaces [PDF]
, 2004 Each lens space has a canonical contact structure which lifts to the distribution of complex lines on the three-sphere. In this paper, we show that a symplectic homology cobordism between two lens spaces, which is given with the canonical contact ...
