This estimate is obtained by looking at the topology of the spaces involved, extending this way what we already knew from the universally tight case to the virtually overtwisted one. As a lower bound, we prove that virtually overtwisted structures on lens spaces never bound Stein rational homology balls. Then we turn our attention to covering maps: since an overtwisted disk lifts to an overtwisted disk, all the coverings of a universally tight structure are themselves tight. The situation is less clear when we consider virtually overtwisted structures. By starting with such a structure on a lens space, we know that this lifts to an overtwisted structure on $S^3$, but what happens to all the other intermediate coverings? We give necessary conditions for these lifts to still be tight, and deduce some information about the fundamental groups of the possible Stein fillings of certain virtually overtwisted structures.","PeriodicalId":50029,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Symplectic Geometry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2019-06-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79005576","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We formalise this observation in the case of convex toric lattice domains $X_Omega$ by constructing a natural polarised toric variety $(Y_{Sigma(Omega)},D_Omega)$ containing the all the information of the ECH capacities of $X_Omega$ in purely algebro-geometric terms.

To a conical Legendrian cobordism $Sigma$ from $Lambda_-$ to $Lambda_+$, we associate an immersed DGA map, which is a diagram $$alg(Lambda_+) stackrel{f}{rightarrow} alg(Sigma) stackrel{i}{hookleftarrow} alg(Lambda_-), $$ where $f$ is a DGA map and $i$ is an inclusion map. This construction gives a functor between suitably defined categories of Legendrians with immersed Lagrangian cobordisms and DGAs with immersed DGA maps. In an algebraic preliminary, we consider an analog of the mapping cylinder construction in the setting of DG-algebras and establish several of its properties. As an application we give examples of augmentations of Legendrian twist knots that can be induced by an immersed filling with a single double point but cannot be induced by any orientable embedded filling.","PeriodicalId":50029,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Symplectic Geometry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2019-05-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90307310","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
