Abstract
In this paper, we examine mapping class group relations of some symplectic manifolds. For each and , we show that the -dimensional Weinstein domain , determined by the degree homogeneous polynomial , has a Boothby-Wang type boundary and a right-handed fibered Dehn twist along the boundary that is symplectically isotopic to a product of right-handed Dehn twists along Lagrangian spheres. We also present explicit descriptions of the symplectomorphisms in the case recovering the classical chain relation for the torus with two boundary components.
