Abstract

Classical dynamical rr-matrices arise naturally in the combinatorial description of the phase space of Chern-Simons theories, either through the inclusion of dynamical sources or through a gauge-fixing procedure involving two punctures. Here we consider classical dynamical rr-matrices for the family of Lie algebras which arise in the Chern-Simons formulation of 3d gravity, for any value of the cosmological constant. We derive differential equations for classical dynamical rr-matrices in this case, and show that they can be viewed as generalised complexifications, in a sense which we define, of the equations governing dynamical rr-matrices for su(2)\mathfrak{su}(2) and sl(2,R)\mathfrak{sl}(2,\mathbb{R}). We obtain explicit families of solutions and relate them, via Weierstrass factorisation, to solutions found by Feher, Gabor, Marshall, Palla and Pusztai in the context of chiral WZWN models.
