The topological type of equilateral and almost equiangular polygon spaces (Q2299999)

In the present paper, \(\mathcal{P}^k_n(\theta)\) denotes the configuration space of equilateral spatial \(n\)-gons whose first \(k\) bond angles are \(\theta\) for \(\theta\in(0,\pi)\) and \(k\in\{0,1,2\ldots,n\}\). In this paper the author determines the topological type of \(\mathcal{P}^{n-3}_n(\theta)\) for any \(n\geq 5\) and \(\theta\in(0,\pi)\).
