More precisely, we consider the lens spaces $L_{7,1}$ and $L_{7,2}$, and prove that their configuration spaces are not homotopy equivalent by showing that their universal coverings have different Massey products.6 pagesAlgebraic Topology55R80; 55S30Configuration spaces are not homotopy invarianttext
