Isomorphisms between contact structures

Standard contact structure on ℝ³, versions 1 and 2

The following two animations demonstrate the link between versions 1 and 2 from the previous page. They both show the star from version 2 embedded into the picture of version 1. The first animation demonstrates how a sample of levels from version 1 intersects a deformed star. The second animation demonstrates that this embedding is the end of an isotopy.

Standard contact structure on ℝ³, versions 3 and 1

In this section, we demonstrate how the obvious Legendrian foliation from version 3 shows up in version 1.
