We sketch in this article a new theory, which we call Symplectic Field Theory or SFT, which provides an approach to Gromov-Witten invariants of symplectic manifolds and their Lagrangian submanifolds in the spirit of topological field theory, and at the same time serves as a rich source of new invariants of contact manifolds and their Legendrian submanifolds. Moreover, we hope that the applications of SFT go far beyond this framework.1

Contact 3-manifolds twenty years since J. Martinet's work

Le texte est consacre a l'etude des structures de contact qui sont invariantes par le gradient d'une fonction de morse On donne en particulier, en dimension 3, une condition topologique necessaire et suffisante pour l'existence de telles structures Pour cela, on explique comment utiliser les champs de vecteurs qui preservent une structure de contact pour decrire le feuilletage caracteristique des surfaces et ses deformations au cours de certaines isotopies

Introduction to the h-Principle

A beautiful and comprehensive introduction to this important field. --Dusa McDuff, Barnard College, Columbia University This excellent book gives a detailed, clear, and wonderfully written treatment of the interplay between the world of Stein manifolds and the more topological and flexible world of Weinstein manifolds. Devoted to this subject with a long history, the book serves as a super introduction to this area and also contains the authors' new results. --Tomasz Mrowka, MIT This book is devoted to the interplay between complex and symplectic geometry in affine complex manifolds. Affine complex (a.k.a. Stein) manifolds have canonically built into them symplectic geometry which is responsible for many phenomena in complex geometry and analysis. The goal of the book is the exploration of this symplectic geometry (the road from "Stein to Weinstein") and its applications in the complex geometric world of Stein manifolds (the road "back"). This is the first book which systematically explores this connection, thus providing a new approach to the classical subject of Stein manifolds. It also contains the first detailed investigation of Weinstein manifolds, the symplectic counterparts of Stein manifolds, which play an important role in symplectic and contact topology. Assuming only a general background from differential topology, the book provides introductions to the various techniques from the theory of functions of several complex variables, symplectic geometry, $h$-principles, and Morse theory that enter the proofs of the main results. The main results of the book are original results of the authors, and several of these results appear here for the first time. The book will be beneficial for all students and mathematicians interested in geometric aspects of complex analysis, symplectic and contact topology, and the interconnections between these subjects.|This book is devoted to the interplay between complex and symplectic geometry in affine complex manifolds.

Structures de contact sur les fibrés principaux en cercles de dimension trois

Ces constructions donnent les meilleurs résultats possibles, puisque dans le chapitre III on constate que la fibration nouée détermine la structure de contact à isomorphisme équivariant près, dans les cas étudiés. On peut remarquer le parallèle curieux entre les constructions de ce travail et celle des feuilletages de codimension un sur les sphères : dans les deux cas les fibrations nouées ont un rôle important, quoique dans le premier cas plus naturellement.
