Gluing pseudoholomorphic curves along branched covered cylinders II
Gluing pseudoholomorphic curves along branched covered cylinders II
This paper and its prequel ("Part I") prove a generalization of the usual gluing theorem for two index 1 pseudoholomorphic curves U + and U -in the symplectization of a contact 3-manifold.We assume that for each embedded Reeb orbit γ, the total multiplicity of the negative ends of U + …
