Abstract: We resolve a question of Fuchs and Tabachnikov by showing that there is a Legendrian knot in standard contact three-space with zero Maslov number which is not Legendrian isotopic to its mirror. The proof uses the differential graded algebras of Chekanov.
Lagrangian submanifolds; Maslov index (53D12) Symplectic and contact topology in high or arbitrary dimension (57R17)
