Abstract
We determine the contact mapping class group of the standard contact structures on lens spaces. To prove the main result, we use the one-parametric convex surface theory to classify Legendrian and transverse rational unknots in any tight contact structure on lens spaces up to Legendrian and transverse isotopy.
