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 prove that the LOSS invariant is natural under the positive contact surgery. In this talk I will review some background and definition, get the idea of the proof and try to focus on the application which is about new examples of non-simple knots.
