Abstract
We prove that any small enough neighborhood of a closed contact submanifold is always tight under a mild assumption on its normal bundle. The non-existence of $C^0$--small positive loops of contactomorphisms in general overtwisted manifolds is shown as a corollary.
期刊介绍:
Publishes high quality papers on all aspects of symplectic geometry, with its deep roots in mathematics, going back to Huygens’ study of optics and to the Hamilton Jacobi formulation of mechanics. Nearly all branches of mathematics are treated, including many parts of dynamical systems, representation theory, combinatorics, packing problems, algebraic geometry, and differential topology.
