Left-handed stabilization has vanishing contact homology
Left-handed stabilization has vanishing contact homology
Let be a cooriented contact manifold of dimension at least . Let be a supporting open book for , and suppose that contains a Lagrangian ball whose boundary is a Legendrian sphere in .
Left-handed stabilization conjecture. The left-handed stabilization of along has vanishing contact homology:
The paper states this claim among its conjectures, although its introduction also describes a theorem proving algebraic overtwistedness for a boundary-parallel Lagrangian ball in a compatible open book. The precise relationship between that theorem and this formulation should be checked.
