Homologie de contact des variétés toroïdales
joint work with Vincent Colin,
Geometry and Topology 9 (2005), 299-313.
We show that contact homology distinguishes infinitely many tight contact structures on any orientable, toroidal, irreducible 3-manifold. As a consequence of the contact homology computations, on a very large class of toroidal manifolds, all known examples of universally tight contact structures with nonvanishing torsion satisfy the Weinstein conjecture.
