Lower complexity bounds for positive contactomorphisms

Lucas Dahinden

英文摘要：

Let $S^*Q$ be the spherization of a closed connected manifold of dimension at least two. Consider a contactomorphism $φ$ that can be reached by a contact isotopy that is everywhere positively transverse to the contact structure. In other words, $φ$ is the time-1-map of a time-dependent Reeb flow. We show that the volume growth of $φ$ is bounded from below by the topological complexity of the loop space of $Q$. Denote by $ΩQ_0(q)$ the component of the based loop space that contains the constant loop. We show that if the fundamental group or the homology of $ΩQ_0(q)$ grows exponentially, then the volume growth of $φ$ is exponential, and thus its topological entropy is positive. A similar statement holds for polynomial growths. This result generalizes work of Dinaburg, Gromov, Paternain and Petean on geodesic flows and of Macarini, Frauenfelder, Labrousse and Schlenk on Reeb flows. Our main tool is a version of Rabinowitz--Floer homology developed by Albers and Frauenfelder.

On the non-existence of small positive loops of contactomorphisms on overtwisted contact manifolds

We prove that on overtwisted contact manifolds there can be no positive loops of contactomorphisms that are generated by a $C^0$-small Hamiltonian function.

Positive topological entropy of positive contactomorphisms

A positive contactomorphism of a contact manifold $M$ is the end point of a contact isotopy on $M$ that is always positively transverse to the contact structure. Assume that $M$ contains a Legendrian sphere $Λ$, and that $(M,Λ)$ is fillable by a Liouville domain $(W,ω)$ with exact Lagrangian $L$ such that $ω|_{π_2(W,L)}=0$. We show that if the exponential growth of the action filtered wrapped Floer homology of $(W,L)$ is positive, then every positive contactomorphism of $M$ has positive topological entropy. This result generalizes the result of Alves and Meiwes from Reeb flows to positive cont…

On the strong orderability of overtwisted 3-folds

In this article we address the existence of positive loops of contactomorphisms in overtwisted contact 3-folds. We present a construction of such positive loops in the contact fibered connected sum of certain contact 3-folds along transverse knots. In particular, we obtain positive loops of contactomorphisms in overtwisted contact structures.

$C^0$-Stability of Topological Entropy for Contactomorphisms

Topological entropy is not lower semi-continous: small perturbation of the dynamical system can lead to a collapse of entropy. In this note we show that for some special classes of dynamical systems (geodesic flows, Reeb flows, positive contactomorphisms) topological entropy at least is stable in the sense that there exists a nontrivial continuous lower bound, given that a certain homological invariant grows exponentially.

On iterated translated points for contactomorphisms of R^{2n+1} and R^{2n} x S^1

A point q in a contact manifold is called a translated point for a contactomorphism ϕ, with respect to some fixed contact form, if ϕ(q) and q belong to the same Reeb orbit and the contact form is preserved at q. The problem of existence of translated points is related to the chord conjecture and to the problem of leafwise coisotropic intersections. In the case of a compactly supported contactomorphism of R^{2n+1} or R^{2n} x S^1 contact isotopic to the identity, existence of translated points follows immediately from Chekanov's theorem on critical points of quasi-functions and Bhupal's graph c…

Orderable Contact Structures on Liouville-fillable Contact Manifolds

We study the existence of positive loops of contactomorphisms on a Liouville-fillable contact manifold $(Σ,ξ=\ker(α))$. Previous results show that a large class of Liouville-fillable contact manifolds admit contractible positive loops. In contrast, we show that for any Liouville-fillable $(Σ,α)$ with $\dim(Σ) \geq 7$, there exists a Liouville-fillable contact structure $ξ'$ on $Σ$ which admits no positive loop at all. Further, $ξ'$ can be chosen to agree with $ξ$ on the complement of a Darboux ball.

On the minimal number of translated points in contact lens spaces

In this article, we prove that every contactomorphism of any standard contact lens space of dimension $2n-1$ that is contact-isotopic to identity has at least $2n$ translated points. This sharp lower bound refines a result of Granja-Karshon-Pabiniak-Sandon and answers a conjecture of Sandon positively.

Local rigidity, contact homeomorphisms, and conformal factors

We show that if the image of a Legendrian submanifold under a contact homeomorphism (i.e. a homeomorphism that is a $C^0$-limit of contactomorphisms) is smooth then it is Legendrian, assuming only positive local lower bounds on the conformal factors of the approximating contactomorphisms. More generally the analogous result holds for coisotropic submanifolds in the sense of arXiv:1306.6367. This is a contact version of the Humilière-Leclercq-Seyfaddini coisotropic rigidity theorem in $C^0$ symplectic geometry, and the proof adapts the author's recent re-proof of that result in arXiv:1912.13043…

Translated points on hypertight contact manifolds

A contact manifold admittting a supporting contact form without contractible Reeb orbits is called hypertight. In this paper we construct a Rabinowitz Floer homology associated to an arbitrary supporting contact form for a hypertight contact manifold, and use this to prove versions of conjectures of Sandon and Mazzucchelli on the existence of translated points and invariant Reeb orbits, and to show that positive loops of contactomorphisms give rise to non-contractible Reeb orbits.

On topological properties of positive complexity one spaces

Motivated by work of Fine and Panov, and of Lindsay and Panov, we prove that every closed symplectic complexity one space that is positive (e.g. positive monotone) enjoys topological properties that Fano varieties with a complexity one holomorphic torus action possess. In particular, such spaces are simply connected, have Todd genus equal to one and vanishing odd Betti numbers.

Fibered Transverse Knots and the Bennequin Bound

We prove that a nicely fibered link (by which we mean the binding of an open book) in a tight contact manifold $(M,ξ)$ with zero Giroux torsion has a transverse representative realizing the Bennequin bound if and only if the contact structure it supports (since it is also the binding of an open book) is $ξ.$ This gives a geometric reason for the non-sharpness of the Bennequin bound for fibered links. We also note that this allows the classification, up to contactomorphism, of maximal self-linking number links in these knot types. Moreover, in the standard tight contact structure on $S^3$ we cl…
