%0 Journal Article %T The topology of a subspace of the Legendrian curves in a closed contact 3-manifold %A Ali Maalaoui %A Vittorio Martino %J Mathematics %D 2013 %I arXiv %X In this paper we study a subspace of the space of Legendrian loops and we show that the injection of this space into the full loop space is an S1-equivariant homotopy equivalence. This space can be also seen as the space of zero Maslov index Legendrian loops and it shows up as a suitable space of variations in contact form geometry. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1303.5017v1
