We prove that in dimension 3 every nondegenerate contact form is carried by a broken book decomposition. As an application we get that if M is a closed irreducible oriented 3-manifold that is not a graph manifold, for example a hyperbolic…

We prove that every nondegenerate contact form on a closed connected three-manifold, such that the associated contact structure has torsion first Chern class, has either two or infinitely many simple Reeb orbits. By previous results it…

We use the equivalence between embedded contact homology and Seiberg-Witten Floer homology to obtain the following improvements on the Weinstein conjecture. Let Y be a closed oriented connected 3-manifold with a stable Hamiltonian…

A unit vector field on a Riemannian manifold $M$ is called geodesic if all of its integral curves are geodesics. We show, in the case of $M$ being a flat 3-manifold not equal to $\mathbb{E}^3$, that every such vector field is tangent to a…

It is known that every contact form on a closed three-manifold has at least two simple Reeb orbits, and a generic contact form has infinitely many. We show that if there are exactly two simple Reeb orbits, then the contact form is…

We show that every closed toroidal irreducible orientable 3-manifold carries infinitely many universally tight contact structures.

In this paper, we provide new and simpler proofs of two theorems of Gluck and Harrison on contact structures induced by great circle or line fibrations. Furthermore, we prove that a geodesic vector field whose Jacobi tensor is parallel…

We study constructions of vector fields with properties which are characteristic to Reeb vector fields of contact forms. In particular, we prove that all closed oriented odd-dimensional manifold have geodesible vector fields.

Let $(Y,\lambda)$ be a non-degenerate contact three manifold. D. Cristfaro-Gardiner, M. Hutshings and D. Pomerleano showed that if $c_{1}(\xi=\mathrm{Ker}\lambda)$ is torsion, then the Reeb vector field of $(Y,\lambda)$ has infinity many…

A Reeb vector field satisfies the Kupka-Smale condition when all its closed orbits are non-degenerate, and the stable and unstable manifolds of its hyperbolic closed orbits intersect transversely. We show that, on a closed 3-manifold, any…

A contact form on the tight $3$-sphere $(S^3,\xi_0)$ is called weakly convex if the Conley-Zehnder index of every Reeb orbit is at least $2$. In this article, we study Reeb flows of weakly convex contact forms on $(S^3,\xi_0)$ admitting a…

In this paper we deal with the existence of periodic orbits of geodesible vector fields on closed 3-manifolds. A vector field is geodesible if there exists a Riemannian metric on the ambient manifold making its orbits geodesics. In…

Let $\mathcal F$ be a co-oriented $C^2$ foliation on a closed, oriented 3-manifold. We show that $T\mathcal F$ can be perturbed to a contact structure with Reeb flow transverse to $\mathcal F$ if and only if $\mathcal F$ does not support an…

Let $X \subset \mathbb{R}^4$ be a convex domain with smooth boundary $Y$. We use a relation between the extrinsic curvature of $Y$ and the Ruelle invariant $\text{Ru}(Y)$ of the natural Reeb flow on $Y$ to prove that there exist constants…

On a 3-dimensional contact manifold with boundary, a bypass attachment is an elementary change of the contact structure consisting in the attachment of a thickened half-disc with a prescribed contact structure along an arc on the boundary.…

We construct a contact form on R^{2n+1}, n at least 2, equal to the standard contact form outside a compact set and defining the standard contact structure on all of R^{2n+1}, which has trapped Reeb orbits, including a torus invariant under…

A contact manifold admittting a supporting contact form without contractible Reeb orbits is called hypertight. In this paper we construct a Rabinowitz Floer homology associated to an arbitrary supporting contact form for a hypertight…

We study invariant submanifolds of manifolds endowed with a normal or complex metric contact pair with decomposable endomorphism field $\phi$. For the normal case, we prove that a $\phi$-invariant submanifold tangent to a Reeb vector field…

We determine parts of the contact homology of certain contact 3-manifolds in the framework of open book decompositions, due to Giroux. We study two cases: when the monodromy map of the compatible open book is periodic and when it is…

In this article, we study the dynamical properties of Reeb vector fields on b-contact manifolds. We show that in dimension 3, the number of so-called singular periodic orbits can be prescribed. These constructions illuminate some key…
