Given a Legendrian knot L in a contact 3 manifold, one can associate a so-called LOSS invariant to L which lives in the knot Floer homology group. We proved that the LOSS invariant is natural under the positive contact surgery. In this talk I will review some background and definition, try to get the ideal of the proof and talk about the application which is about distinguishing Legendrian and Transverse knot.
