We present a sketch of the proof of the following theorems: (1) Every 3-manifold has only finitely many homotopy classes of 2-plane fields which carry tight contact structures. (2) Every closed atoroidal 3-manifold carries finitely many isotopy classes of tight contact structures.

    Characteristic foliations of contact Hamiltonian manifolds determine convexity of hypersurfaces, with Morse-Smale implying convexity, C0-density of convex hypersurfaces, and C2-robust non-convex examples in dimensions ≥5.
