Finiteness conjecture for non-destabilizable Legendrian link types
Finiteness conjecture for non-destabilizable Legendrian link types
Let be a link type in . A Legendrian link type is non-destabilizable if it cannot be obtained from another Legendrian link type by a destabilization. Finiteness conjecture. For any link type in , there are only finitely many non-destabilizable Legendrian link types having topological type . This is a general folklore conjecture motivated by the classification problem for Legendrian links; it is unsettled in general, although it is known for several specific knot types.
