Knotted Legendrian surfaces with few Reeb chords

Abstract: For g>0, we construct g+1 Legendrian embeddings of a surface of genus g into J1(R2)=R5 which lie in pairwise distinct Legendrian isotopy classes and which all have g+1 transverse Reeb chords (g+1 is the conjecturally minimal number of chords). Furthermore, for g of the g+1 embeddings the Legendrian contact homology DGA does not admit any augmentation over Z/2Z, and hence cannot be linearized. We also investigate these surfaces from the point of view of the theory of generating families. Finally, we consider Legendrian spheres and planes in J1(S2) from a similar perspective.
