Bennequin type inequalities in lens spaces

Christopher R. Cornwell

Published 2010-02-08, updated 2011-11-09Version 3

We give criteria for an invariant of lens space links to bound the maximal self-linking number in certain tight contact lens spaces. As a corollary we extend the Franks-Williams-Morton inequality to the setting of lens spaces.
