In this paper we define two infinite families of graphs called C-$\delta$ graphs and $\delta$- graph and prove that $\delta$-graphs satisfy $\delta$ conjecture. Also we introduce a family of C-$\delta$ graphs from which we can identify…

We define the notion of a knot type having Legendrian large cables and show that having this property implies that the knot type is not uniformly thick. Moreover, there are solid tori in this knot type that do not thicken to a solid torus…

In this note, we show that transverse knots have unique standard neighborhoods and prove a structure theorem about non-loose Legendrian knots. We also prove a finiteness result for transverse knots in a tight contact manifold. The common…

In this paper, we present a complete coarse classification of non-loose Legendrian and transverse torus knots in any contact structure on $S^1\times S^2$.

We study the unwrapped Fukaya category of Lagrangian branes ending on a Legendrian knot. Our knots live at contact infinity in the cotangent bundle of a surface, the Fukaya category of which is equivalent to the category of constructible…

A graph G is {\xi}-nearly planar if it can be embedded in the sphere so that each of its edges is crossed at most {\xi} times. The family of {\xi}-nearly planar graphs is widely extending the notion of planarity. We introduce an alternative…

We construct minor-closed addable families of graphs that are subcritical and contain all planar graphs. This contradicts (one direction of) a well-known conjecture of Noy.

In recent joint works of the present author with M.Prasolov and V.Shastin a new technique for distinguishing Legendrian knots has been developed. In this paper the technique is extended further to provide a tool for distinguishing…

We give new functions of Legendrian knots derived from Legendrian fronts. These are integer-valued linear functions that are alike the Arnold basic invariant of plane curves. Various generalizations of the Arnold basic invariant have been…

We introduce and study strongly invertible Legendrian links in the standard contact three-dimensional space. We establish the equivariant analogs of basic results separately well-known for strongly invertible and Legendrian links, i.e. the…

We define ruling invariants for even-valence Legendrian graphs in standard contact three-space. We prove that rulings exist if and only if the DGA of the graph, introduced by the first two authors, has an augmentation. We set up the usual…

We investigate properties of spatial graphs on the standard torus. It is known that nontrivial embeddings of planar graphs in the torus contain a nontrivial knot or a nonsplit link due to [1],[2]. Building on this and using the chirality of…

Take a sequence of contactomorphisms of a contact three-manifold that $C^0$-converges to a homeomorphism. If the images of a Legendrian knot limit to a smooth knot under this sequence, we show that it is Legendrian. We prove this by…

Let $\Lambda$ be a Legendrian in the jet space of some manifold $X$. To a generating family presentation of $\Lambda$, we associate a constructible sheaf on $X \times \mathbb{R}$ whose singular support at infinity is $\Lambda$, and such…

We consider S^1-families of Legendrian knots in the standard contact R^3. We define the monodromy of such a loop, which is an automorphism of the Chekanov-Eliashberg contact homology of the starting (and ending) point. We prove this…

Each ruling of a Legendrian link can be naturally treated as a surface. For knots, the ruling is 2-graded if and only if the surface is orientable. For 2-graded rulings of homogeneous (in particular, alternating) knots, we prove that the…
