On properties of Bourgeois contact structures

Samuel Lisi, Aleksandra Marinković and Klaus Niederkrüger

Algebraic & Geometric Topology 19 (2019) 3409–3451
Abstract

The Bourgeois construction associates to every contact open book on a manifold V a contact structure on V × T2. We study some of the properties of V that are inherited by V × T2 and some that are not.

Giroux has provided recently a better framework to work with contact open books. In the appendix, we quickly review this formalism, and we work out a few classical examples of contact open books to illustrate how to use this new language.
