We prove that the only contact Moishezon threefold having second Betti number equal to one is the projective space.
We give the full classification of smooth toric Legendrian subvarieties in projective space. We also prove that under some minor assumptions the group of linear automorphisms preserving given Legendrian subvariety preserves the contact structure of the ambient projective space.
We prove that a general hyperplane section of a smooth Legendrian subvariety in a projective space admits Legendrian embedding into another projective space. This gives numerous new examples of smooth Legendrian subvarieties, some of which have positive Kodaira dimension.
We construct a family of examples of Legendrian subvarieties in some projective spaces. Although most of them are singular, a new example of smooth Legendrian variety in dimension 8 is in this family. The 8-fold has interesting properties: it is a compactification of the special linear group, a Fano manifold of index 5 and Picard number 1.
I prove that every smooth legendrian variety generated by quadrics is a homogeneous variety and further I give a list of all such legendrian varieties. A review of the subject is included, illustrated by examples. Another result is that no complete intersection is a legendrian variety.
