Abstract
Let be a knot in which has the -torus knot for or the figure-eight knot as a component of connected sum. For its conormal bundle in , we show that there is no compactly supported Hamiltonian diffeomorphism on such that intersects the zero section cleanly along the unknot in . Using symplectic field theory, the proof is reduced to studying the augmentation variety of over a filed . The key point of this paper is finding an algebraic constraint on which is valid only when is not algebraically closed, and the proof is completed by some arithmetic argument with .
