Contact homology and homotopy groups of the space of contact structures
Mathematical Research Letters 13 (2006) No. 1, 71-85.
Using contact homology, we reobtain some recent results of Geiges and Gonzalo about the first fundamental group of the space of contact structures on some 3-manifolds. We show that our techniques can be used to study higher dimensional contact manifolds and higher order homotopy groups.
