The importance of pseudoholomorphic curves in symplectic geometry goes back to the works of M. Gromov in the mid-eighties. They were used by A. Floer in his solution of Arnold's conjectures about fixed points of Hamiltonian mappings of compact symplectic manifolds. More recently, H. Hofer designed a theory of pseudoholomorphic curves in symplectisations of contact manifolds. He applied it to the study of periodic orbits for Reeb flows on \(S^3\). This paper reviews basic results of Hofer's theory and presents very recent advances, without detailed proofs. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0929.00102].
