We define the support genus of a transverse link and prove that the support genus of the coarse equivalence class of transverse link is zero if there is an overtwisted disk disjoint from it. Next, we find a relationship between the support genus of a Legendrian and transverse link and as a corollary show that a non-loose Legendrian knot will have non-loose transverse push-off if it has non-zero support genus.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2021-08-17T17:15:41.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "57K33", "57K10" ], "keywords": [ "transverse link", "overtwisted manifolds", "non-zero support genus", "non-loose transverse push-off", "coarse equivalence class" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 16, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
