Contact homology and virtual fundamental cycles

Symplectic Geometry 2020-01-27 v4

Abstract

We give a construction of contact homology in the sense of Eliashberg--Givental--Hofer. Specifically, we construct coherent virtual fundamental cycles on the relevant compactified moduli spaces of pseudo-holomorphic curves.
