Stein fillable Seifert fibered 3–manifolds

Ana G Lecuona and Paolo Lisca

Algebraic & Geometric Topology 11 (2011) 625–642

DOI: 10.2140/agt.2011.11.625

Abstract

We characterize the closed, oriented, Seifert fibered 3–manifolds which are oriented boundaries of Stein manifolds. We also show that for this class of 3–manifolds the existence of Stein fillings is equivalent to the existence of symplectic fillings.

Keywords

Seifert fibered 3–manifold, Stein filling, symplectic filling, positive open book
