A bound for rational Thurston-Bennequin invariants (1705.09440v2)
Published 26 May 2017 in math.GT and math.SG
Abstract: In this paper, we introduce a rational $\tau$ invariant for rationally null-homologous knots in contact 3-manifolds with nontrivial Ozsv\'{a}th-Szab\'{o} contact invariants. Such an invariant is an upper bound for the sum of rational Thurston-Bennequin invariant and the rational rotation number of the Legendrian representatives of the knot. In the special case of Floer simple knots in L-spaces, we can compute the rational $\tau$ invariants by correction terms.
