Tight contact structures and taut foliations

Ko Honda, William H Kazez, Gordana Matic

Published 2000-10-13Version 1

We show the equivalence of several notions in the theory of taut foliations and the theory of tight contact structures. We prove equivalence, in certain cases, of existence of tight contact structures and taut foliations.
