Genus one open books with non-left-orderable fundamental group

Abstract

Let Y be a closed, connected, orientable three-manifold admitting a genus one open book decomposition with one boundary component. We prove that if Y is an L-space, then the fundamental group of Y is not left-orderable. This answers a question posed by John Baldwin.
