We propose the graph description of Teichm\"uller theory of surfaces with marked points on boundary components (bordered surfaces). Introducing new parameters, we formulate this theory in terms of hyperbolic geometry. We can then describe…

We define an associative algebra AS_h(S) generated by framed arcs and links over a punctured surface S which is a quantization of the Poisson algebra C(S) of arcs and curves on S. We then construct a Poisson algebra homomorphism from C(S)…

In our recent paper we proved the polynomiality of a Poisson bracket for a class of infinite-dimensional Hamiltonian systems of PDE's associated to semi-simple Frobenius structures. In the conformal (homogeneous) case, these systems are…

We construct an action of the braid group B_N on the twisted quantized enveloping algebra U'_q(o_N) where the elements of B_N act as automorphisms. In the classical limit q -> 1 we recover the action of B_N on the polynomial functions on…

We formulate the uniformisation problem underlying the geometry of W_n-gravity using the differential equation approach to W-algebras. We construct W_n-space (analogous to superspace in supersymmetry) as an (n-1) dimensional complex…

Hitchin's twistor treatment of Schlesinger's equations is extended to the general isomonodromic deformation problem. It is shown that a generic linear system of ordinary differential equations with gauge group SL(n,C) on a Riemann surface X…

The conformal boundary of a hyperbolic $3$-manifold $M$ is a union of Riemann surfaces. If any of these Riemann surfaces has a nontrivial Teichm\"uller space, then the hyperbolic metric of $M$ can be deformed quasi-isometrically. These…
