We study the notion of orderability of isotopy classes of Legendrian submanifolds and their universal covers, with some weaker results concerning spaces of contactomorphisms. Our main result is that orderability is equivalent to the…

The purposes of the present paper are two-fold. Firstly we further develop the interplay between the contact Hamiltonian geometry and the geometric analysis of Hamiltonian-perturbed contact instantons with the Legendrian boundary condition,…

We show that for a closed Legendrian submanifold in a 1-jet bundle, if there is a sheaf with compact support, perfect stalk and singular support on that Legendrian, then (1) the number of Reeb chords has a lower bound by half of the sum of…

Assume that we are given a closed chord-generic Legendrian submanifold $\Lambda \subset P \times \mathbb R$ of the contactisation of a Liouville manifold, where $\Lambda$ moreover admits an exact Lagrangian filling $L_{\Lambda} \subset…

We construct non-compact contact manifolds containing compact Legendrians which can be displaced from their Reeb flow with arbitrarily small oscillation energy. We use this to show the Shelukhin-Chekanov-Hofer pseudo-metric considered by…

We give a quantitative refinement of the invariance of the Legendrian contact homology algebra in general contact manifolds. We show that in this general case, the Lagrangian cobordism trace of a Legendrian isotopy defines a DGA stable tame…

We prove that for a $C^\infty$-generic contact form defining a given co-oriented contact structure on a closed $3$-manifold, every hyperbolic periodic Reeb orbit admits a transverse homoclinic connection in each of the branches of its…

Contact homology for Legendrian submanifolds in standard contact $(2n+1)$-space is rigorously defined using moduli spaces of holomorphic disks with Lagrangian boundary conditions in complex $n$-space. It provides new invariants of…

In this paper we study the growth rate of a version of Legendrian contact homology, which we call strip Legendrian contact homology, in 3-dimensional contact manifolds and its relation to the topological entropy of Reeb flows. We show that:…
