Symplectic Structures on Spaces of Polygons

A symplectic form on a smooth manifold is a differential 2-form on pairs of tangent vectors of the manifold which is closed and non-degenerate. A polygon in threedimensional space is a closed polygonal line, or, more precisely, a polygon of m sides is a map ρ from the set of the first m integers int...
