The contact invariant in sutured Floer homology

The contact invariant in sutured Floer homology

We describe an invariant of a contact 3-manifold with convex boundary as an element of Juhász’s sutured Floer homology. Our invariant generalizes the contact invariant in Heegaard Floer homology in the closed case, due to Ozsváth and Szabó.
