Abstract

We prove two results on the classification of trivial Legendrian embeddings g:G(S3,ξstd)g: G \rightarrow (S^3,\xi_{std}) of planar graphs. First, the oriented Legendrian ribbon RgR_g and rotation invariant rotg\text{rot}_g are a complete set of invariants. Second, if GG is 3-connected or contains K4K_4 as a minor, then the unique trivial embedding of GG is Legendrian simple.
