We investigate the geometry of Legendrian complex projective manifolds $X\subset\PP V$. By definition, this means $V$ is a complex vector space of dimension $2n+2$, endowed with a symplectic form, and the affine tangent space to $X$ at each…

For a certain class of Legendrian surfaces in the five-sphere, associated to cubic planar graphs, we show that the all-genus skein-valued holomorphic curve invariants of any filling are annihilated by certain explicit skein-valued operator…

We give a computation of the Legendrian contact homology (LCH) DGA for an arbitrary generic Legendrian surface $L$ in the $1$-jet space of a surface. As input we require a suitable cellular decomposition of the base projection of $L$. A…

We consider Legendrian links and tangles in $J^1S^1$ and $J^1[0,1]$ equipped with Morse complex families over a field $\mathbb{F}$ and classify them up to Legendrian cobordism. When the coefficient field is $\mathbb{F}_2$ this provides a…

Using the structural theorems developed in [Hua13], we study the deformation theory of coisotropic submanifolds in contact manifolds, under the assumption that the characteristic foliation is nonsingular. In the "middle" dimensions, we find…

We define a differential graded algebra associated to Legendrian knots in thickened convex surfaces $\Sigma\times \mathbb{R}$. The algebra is defined in the same spirit as the Chekanov-Eliashberg DGA for Legendrians in $\mathbb{R}^3$, but…

We consider a generalization of Calabi-Yau structures in the context of $\alpha$-Sasakian manifolds. We study deformations of a special class of Legendrian submanifolds and classify invariant contact Calabi-Yau structures on 5-dimensional…

We construct a moduli space for Legendrian curves singularities which are contactomorphic-equivalent and equisingular through a contact analogue of the Kodaira-Spencer map for curve singularities. We focus on the specific case of Legendrian…

The classical transversality lemma of contact geometry constructs a contact structure on a hypersurface transverse to a Liouville vector field using point-set topology and local flows. This paper translates the classical transversality…

By a result due to Ziltener, there exist no closed embedded Bohr-Sommerfeld Lagrangians inside $\mathbb CP^n$ for the prequantisation bundle whose total space is the standard contact sphere. On the other hand, any embedded monotone…

We introduce a new Legendrian isotopy invariant for any closed orientable Legendrian surface $L$ embedded in a closed contact $5$-manifold $(M, \xi)$ which admits an "admissable" open book $(B, f)$ (supporting $\xi$) for $L$. We show that…
