A correspondence between negative-twisting tight contact structures on Seifert fibered spaces over S² and Alexander-filtered Heegaard Floer homology provides their complete classification, proves symplectic fillability, and gives combinatorial counts via Seifert coefficients.
Mazur manifolds with boundaries Σ(2,3,13), Σ(2,5,7), and Σ(3,4,5) admit no symplectic structure, producing exotic pairs of simply connected 4-manifolds with definite intersection forms.
