Common positive stabilisation of open book decompositions

Geometric Topology 2025-12-22 v1

Abstract

The Giroux Correspondence states that two open book decompositions supporting the same contact structure are related by a sequence of positive open book stabilisations and destabilisations. In this note we show that any two open book decompositions supporting isotopic contact structures admit a common positive stabilisation.
