Paolo Ghiggini

DOI: 10.2140/agt.2008.8.381
Abstract

We study some properties of transverse contact structures on small Seifert manifolds, and we apply them to the classification of tight contact structures on a family of small Seifert manifolds.

Keywords

transverse contact structure, small Seifert manifold, L–space
