Symmetries of the q-deformed real projective line
Abstract
We generalize in two steps the quantized action of the modular group on -deformed real numbers introduced by Morier-Genoud and Ovsienko. First, we let the projective general linear group act on -real numbers via a -deformed action. The quantized matrices we get have combinatorial interpretations. Then we consider an extension of the group by the -elements cyclic group, and define a quantized action of this extension on -real numbers. We deduce from these actions some underlying relations between -real numbers, and between left and right versions of -deformed rational numbers. In particular we investigate the case of some algebraic numbers of degree and . We also prove that the way of quantizing real numbers defined by Morier-Genoud and Ovsienko is an injective process.
