Cylindrical contact homology for dynamically convex contact forms in three dimensions
The main result here shows that for ``dynamically convex contact forms in three dimensions, and for generic almost complex structures \(J\), one can define the differential \(\partial\) by counting \(J\)-holomorphic cylinders without any abstract perturbation of the Cauchy-Riemann equation. The intersection theory of holomorphic curves is used to prove that the troublesome breaking cannot occur for generic \(J\). The index calculation is used to show that one can obtain the transversality needed to define \(\partial\) and to prove that \(\partial^2 = 0\), using a generic almost complex structure, without breaking the \(S^1\) symmetry. Then cylindrical contact homology is an invariant of three-manifolds with contact structures that admit dynamically convex contact forms, by counting holomorphic cylinders in cobordisms to define chain maps and chain homotopies. The proof of invariance shows that cylindrical contact homology lifts to an invariant with integer coefficients.
