The contact mapping class group and rational unknots in lens spaces
Abstract
We determine the contact mapping class group of the standard contact structures on lens spaces. To prove the main result, we use the one-parametric convex surface theory to classify Legendrian and transverse rational unknots in any tight contact structure on lens spaces up to Legendrian and transverse isotopy.
