I am an undergrad and curious why dividing set of a convex surface $\Sigma$ is nonempty when it has a Legendrian boundary? I know you can use Stokes theorem to contrapositive the statement for closed case but I don't see why for Legendrian boundary case. Thanks for your help! p.s. Somebody had voted this question as "unclear or not useful"! I am just an undergrad who tries to understand something hard for me:( Such a discouraging move.. You could have just stated what i did or stated wrong or missing.
