An open book decomposition compatible with rational contact surgery

Geometric Topology 2012-06-22 v1

Abstract

We construct an open book decomposition compatible with a contact structure given by a rational contact surgery on a Legendrian link in the standard contact S3S^3. As an application we show that some rational contact surgeries on certain Legendrian knots induce overtwisted contact structures.
