The Legendrian knot complement problem
From MaRDI portal
Abstract: We prove that every Legendrian knot in the tight contact structure of the 3-sphere is determined by the contactomorphism type of its exterior. Moreover, by giving counterexamples we show this to be not true for Legendrian links in the tight 3-sphere. On the way a new user-friendly formula for computing the Thurston-Bennequin invariant of a Legendrian knot in a surgery diagram is given.
