### Compatible contact structures of fibered Seifert links in homology 3-spheres

Masaharu Ishikawa

#### Abstract

We study compatible contact structures of fibered Seifert multilinks in homology 3-spheres and especially give a necessary and sufficient condition for the contact structure to be tight in the case where the Seifert fibration is positively twisted. As a corollary we determine the strongly quasipositivity of fibered Seifert links in $S^3$. We also study the compatible contact structures of cablings along links in any 3-manifolds.
