Abstract
We show that if is some space of holonomic solutions with space of formal solutions that satisfies a certain relative -principle, then the non-relative map admits a section up to homotopy. We apply this to the relative -principle for overtwisted contact structures proved by Borman-Eliashberg-Murphy to find infinite cyclic subgroups in the homotopy groups of the contactomorphism group of .
