Klappentext zu „Holomorphic Curves and Global Questions in Contact Geometry “
This book explains the foundations of holomorphic curve theory in contact geometry. By using a particular geometric problem as a starting point the authors guide the reader into the subject. As such it ideally serves as preparation and as entry point for a deeper study of the analysis underlying symplectic field theory.An introductory chapter sets the stage explaining some of the basic notions of contact geometry and the role of holomorphic curves in the field. The authors proceed to the heart of the material providing a detailed exposition about finite energy planes and periodic orbits (chapter 4) to disk filling methods and applications (chapter 9).
The material is self-contained. It includes a number of technical appendices giving the geometric analysis foundations for the main results, so that one may easily follow the discussion. Graduate students as well as researchers who want to learn the basics of this fast developing theory will highly appreciate this accessible approach taken by the authors.

Pressezitat
"The book under review is the entry point for studying low-dimensional foliations and the symplectic field theory. ... It can be seen as a perfect tool for graduate students and researchers who would like to learn about pseudoholomorphic curves in contact geometry." (Roman Golovko, zbMATH 1431.53001, 2020)
