We construct positive loops of Legendrian submanifolds in several instances. In particular, we partially recover G. Liu's result stating that any loose Legendrian admits a positive loop, under some mild topological assumptions on the…
Positive loops of Legendrian embeddings are examined from the point of view of Floer homology of Lagrangian cobordisms. This leads to new obstructions to the existence of a positive loop containing a given Legendrian, expressed in terms of…
This article provides an exposition of Emmy Murphy's work on loose Legendrian embeddings. After a brief review of the rudiments of contact topology, we state and discuss some foundational results from the theory of h-principles, providing…
We give an $h$--principle type result for a class of Legendrian embeddings in contact manifolds of dimension at least $5$. These Legendrians, referred to as loose, have trivial pseudo-holomorphic invariants. We demonstrate they are…
We prove the existence of a subclass of overtwisted contact structures, called strongly overtwisted, on a 3-manifold that satisfy a complete h-principle without prescribing the contact structures over any subset of the 3-manifold. As a…
We show that there is no positive loop inside the component of a fiber in the space of Legendrian embeddings in the contact manifold $ST^*M$, provided that the universal cover of $M$ is $\RM^n$. We consider some related results in the space…
We study Legendrian embeddings of a compact Legendrian submanifold $L$ sitting in a closed contact manifold $(M,\xi)$ whose contact structure is supported by a (contact) open book $\mathcal{OB}$ on $M$. We prove that if $\mathcal{OB}$ has…
In contrast with what happens for Legendrian embeddings, there always exist positive loops of Legendrian immersions.
We prove that Legendrian and transverse links in overtwisted contact structures having overtwisted complements can be classified coarsely by their classical invariants. We further prove that any coarse equivalence class of loose links has…
In this article we prove that the Weinstein conjecture holds for contact manifolds $(\Sigma,\xi)$ for which $\mathrm{Cont}_0(\Sigma,\xi)$ is non-orderable in the sense of Eliashberg-Polterovich [EP00]. More precisely, we establish a link…
We show that the image of a Legendrian submanifold under a homeomorphism that is the $C^0$-limit of a sequence of contactomorphisms is again Legendrian, if the image of the submanifold is smooth. In proving this, we show that any…
It is shown that non-negative Legendrian isotopy defines a partial order on the universal cover of the Legendrian isotopy class of the fibre of the spherical cotangent bundle of any manifold. This result is applied to Lorentz geometry in…
It is shown that if the universal cover of a manifold $M$ is an open manifold, then two different fibres of the spherical cotangent bundle $ST^*M$ cannot be connected by a non-negative Legendrian isotopy. This result is applied to the study…
We study the global topology of the space $\mathcal L$ of loops of contactomorphisms of a non-orderable closed contact manifold $(M^{2n+1}, \alpha)$. We filter $\mathcal L$ by a quantitative measure of the ``positivity'' of the loops and…
We show that a null-homologous transverse knot K in the complement of an overtwisted disk in a contact 3-manifold is the boundary of a Legendrian ribbon if and only if it possesses a Seifert surface S such that the self-linking number of K…
We classify convex disks with a fixed characteristic foliation and Legendrian boundary, up to contact isotopy relative to the boundary, in every closed overtwisted contact 3-manifold. This classification covers cases where the neighborhood…
In this short note we discuss certain examples of Legendrian submanifolds, whose linearized Legendrian contact (co)homology groups over integers have non-vanishing algebraic torsion. More precisely, for a given arbitrary finitely generated…
This paper explores the relationship between the existence of an exact embedded Lagrangian filling for a Legendrian knot in the standard contact $\rr^3$ and the hierarchy of positive, strongly quasi-positive, and quasi-positive knots. On…
In this article we address the existence of positive loops of contactomorphisms in overtwisted contact 3-folds. We present a construction of such positive loops in the contact fibered connected sum of certain contact 3-folds along…
We provide a $C^0$ counterexample to the Lagrangian Arnold conjecture in the cotangent bundle of a closed manifold. Additionally, we prove a quantitative $h$-principle for subcritical isotropic embeddings in contact manifolds, and provide…
