In this short note, we construct a family of non-regular, and therefore non-decomposable, Lagrangian concordances between Lagrangian fillable Legendrian knots in the standard contact 3-dimensional sphere. More precisely, for every…
We prove that all maximal-tb Legendrian torus links (n,m) in the standard contact 3-sphere, except for (2,m),(3,3),(3,4) and (3,5), admit infinitely many Lagrangian fillings in the standard symplectic 4-ball. This is proven by constructing…
We explore the construction of Legendrian spheres in contact manifolds of any dimension. Two constructions involving open books work in any contact manifold, while one introduced by Ekholm works only in $\mathbb{R}^{2n+1}$. We show that…
Let $\mathbb{R} \times (P \times \mathbb{R})$ be the symplectisation of the contactisation of an exact symplectic manifold $P$, and let $\mathbb{R} \times \Lambda$ be a cylinder over a Legendrian submanifold in the contactisation. We show…
We show that for a big class of contact manifolds the groups of order $\leq n$ invariants (with values in an arbitrary Abelian group) of Legendrian, of transverse and of framed knots are canonically isomorphic. On the other hand for an…
Legendrian contact homology (LCH) and its associated differential graded algebra are powerful non-classical invariants of Legendrian knots. Linearization makes the LCH computationally tractable at the expense of discarding nonlinear (and…
This paper introduces two constructions of Legendrian submanifolds, called the Legendrian product and spinning, and computes their classical invariants, the Thurston-Bennequin invariant and the Maslov class, in R^{2n+1}. These constructions…
We construct new unbounded invariant distances on the universal cover of certain Legendrian isotopy classes. This is the first instance where unboundedness of an invariant distance is obtained without assuming the existence of a positive…
In this note we provide explicit constructions of exact Lagrangian embeddings of tori and Klein bottles inside the symplectisation of an overtwisted contact three-manifold. Note that any closed exact Lagrangian in the symplectisation is…
In this paper we study holomorphic Legendrian curves in the standard holomorphic contact structure on $\mathbb{C}^{2n+1}$ for any $n\in\mathbb{N}$. We provide several approximation and desingularization results which enable us to prove…
We explain a connection between the algebraic and geometric properties of groups of contact transformations, open book decompositions, and flexible Legendrian embeddings. The main result is that, if a closed contact manifold $(V, \xi)$ has…
Let $H\subseteq S^3$ be the two-component Hopf link. After choosing a Legendrian representative of $H$ with respect to the standard tight contact structure on $S^3$ we perform contact $(-1)$-surgery on the link itself. The manifold we get…
Let $Z \to Y^{2n+1}$ be the bundle of Legendrian $n$-planes over a contact manifold $Y$. We consider a foliation of $Z$ by canonical lifts of Legendrian submanifolds, called \emph{Legendrian submanifold path geometry}, whose flat model is…
We study the singularities of Legendrian subvarieties of contact manifolds in the complex-analytic category and prove two rigidity results. The first one is that Legendrian singularities with reduced tangent cones are contactomorphically…
We give a construction of embedded contact homology (ECH) for a contact $3$-manifold $Y$ with convex sutured boundary and a pair of Legendrians $\Lambda_+$ and $\Lambda_-$ contained in $\partial Y$ satisfying an exactness condition. The…
This paper completely answers the question of when contact (r)-surgery on a Legendrian knot in the standard contact structure on the 3-sphere yields a symplectically fillable contact manifold for r in (0,1]. We also give obstructions for…
We compare two constructions of exact Lagrangian fillings of Legendrian positive braid closures, the Legendrian weaves of Casals-Zaslow, and the decomposable Lagrangian fillings, of Ekholm-Honda-K\'alm\'an and show that they coincide for…
We introduce a generalization of the Lisca-Ozsv\'ath-Stipsicz-Szab\'o Legendrian invariant $\mathfrak L$ to links in every rational homology sphere, using the collapsed version of link Floer homology. We represent a Legendrian link $L$ in a…
In this paper we study the uniqueness of Lagrangian fillings of the standard Legendrian sphere $\mathcal{L}_0$ in the standard contact sphere $(S^{2n-1}, \xi_{\text st})$. We show that every exact Maslov zero Lagrangian filling $L$ of…
Legendrian Contact Homology (LCH) and its augmentations are important invariants of Legendrian submanifolds, and for Legendrian knots in the standard contact 3-space in particular. We increase understanding of the algebraic structure of LCH…
