Completeness conjecture for Legendrian graph stabilizations and vertex twists
Completeness conjecture for Legendrian graph stabilizations and vertex twists
Let be a graph and let be a smooth embedding. A Legendrian realization of is a Legendrian embedding of in representing the smooth embedding . Legendrian graph equivalence conjecture. Any two Legendrian realizations and of are related, up to Legendrian isotopy, by a sequence of edge stabilizations, vertex stabilizations, and vertex twists.
Edge stabilization, vertex stabilization, and vertex twist are local operations on Legendrian graphs that preserve their smooth isotopy class. The conjecture proposes that these operations completely classify Legendrian realizations within a fixed smooth isotopy class; the preceding discussion explains that edge stabilizations alone are insufficient, while no resolution is given here.
