Factorizations in SL(2,Z) and simple examples of inequivalent Stein fillings

preprint2014arXivOpen access

Abstract

We give simple examples of elements of SL(2,Z) admitting inequivalent factorizations into products of Dehn twists. This can be interpreted in terms of inequivalent Stein fillings of a same contact 3-manifold by genus 1 Lefschetz fibrations over the disk.
