Twisted ECH functoriality for capping and decoupling cobordisms
Twisted ECH functoriality for capping and decoupling cobordisms
Let be a -capping or -decoupling cobordism from to , and define the closed -forms on the boundary by
For each boundary contact manifold, let denote its twisted contact invariant in , and let be the -fold -map.
Twisted ECH cobordism conjecture. If vanishes, then also vanishes. Moreover, if lies in the image of on for some , then lies in the image of on .
This conjectural extension of the exact-cobordism result would remove the exactness condition on for -capping and -decoupling cobordisms, using twisted coefficients to record the boundary restrictions of the symplectic form. The preceding discussion presents vanishing results as evidence, but the statement is not identified as resolved in the supplied text.
