A note on the support norm of a contact structure

John A. Baldwin, John B. Etnyre

Published 2009-10-27Version 1

In this note we observe that the no two of the three invariants defined for contact structures by Etnyre and Ozbagci -- that is, the support genus, binding number and support norm -- determine the third.
