Abstract
We introduce the moduli space of generic piecewise circular -gons in the Riemann sphere and relate it to a moduli space of Legendrian polygons. We prove that when , this moduli space contains a connected component homeomorphic to the Fock-Goncharov space of -tuples of positive flags for and hence is a topological ball. We characterize this component geometrically as the space of simple piecewise circular curves with decreasing curvature.
