On the classification of tight contact structures I

arXiv:math/9910127 · doi:10.2140/gt.2000.4.309

Abstract

We develop new techniques in the theory of convex surfaces to prove complete classification results for tight contact structures on lens spaces, solid tori, and T^2 X I. Erratum: In this note we seek to remedy errors which appeared in version 2 and were propagated in subsequent papers.
