The planarity and semi-dilation bounds for open books

Let YY be an open book with page WW. Here P\operatorname{P} denotes planarity and SD\operatorname{SD} denotes semi-dilation order.

The open-book conjecture.

P(Y)P(W),SD(Y)SD(W).\operatorname{P}(Y)\le \operatorname{P}(W),\qquad \operatorname{SD}(Y)\le \operatorname{SD}(W).

This would extend the upper-bound theorem proved in the paper from the particular cases treated there to arbitrary open books, relating contact invariants of the open book to those of its page.
