It is currently unknown whether the maximal Thurston-Bennequin number for the mirror 10<sub>132</sub> knot is -1 or 0. This is the only knot with at most 10 crossings for which this invariant is unknown.
[[10 132]] is a very interesting knot from the point of view of contact geometry. In particular, it is a transversely nonsimple knot, and it was the last knot with at most 10 crossings for which the maximal Thurston-Bennequin number was calculated.

10 132 is a very interesting knot from the point of view of contact geometry. In particular, it is a transversely nonsimple knot, and it was the last knot with at most 10 crossings for which the maximal Thurston-Bennequin number was calculated.
