This lecture explores the concept of topological entropy in the context of compact manifolds, Reeb flows, and plane distributions. The instructor discusses the forcing of topological entropy via cylindrical contact homology, focusing on closed submanifolds and the implications of different vector fields. Various joint works are referenced throughout the lecture, shedding light on the intricate relationship between topological entropy and geometric structures.
