Abstract

It is known that the lens space L(2n,1)L(2n,1) supports a virtually overtwisted contact structure arising as the boundary of the Milnor fiber of a complex hypersurface singularity. In this article we study the problem of realizing other (L(p,q),ξ)(L(p,q),\xi) in such a way, obtaining a series of necessary conditions for this to happen.
