Abstract

Let M_n be the moduli space of equilateral polygon linkages with n vertices, each edge having length 1 in the Euclidean plane R^2 modulo orientation preserving isometry group of R^2. For a given diffeomorphism φ:M_n→M_n, we give a method to determine whether φ preserves the orientation or not. We also determine H_*(M_n/φ;Q) when φ is a certain involution.
