In 1980's H. Verlinde suggested to construct and use a quantization of Teichm\"uller spaces to construct spaces of conformal blocks for the Liouville conformal field theory. This suggestion led to a mathematical formulation by Fock in…
We give an irreducible decomposition of the so-called local representations (see arXiv:0707.2151) of the quantum Teichm\"uller space $\mathcal{T}_q(\Sigma)$ where $\Sigma$ is a punctured surface of genus $g>0$ and $q$ is a primitive $N$-th…
We present an outline of the theory of universal Teichmuller space, viewed as part of the theory of QS, the space of quasisymmetric homeomorphisms of a circle. Although elements of QS act in one dimension, most results depend on a…
In the first part of the paper we describe the complex geometry of the universal Teichm\"uller space $\mathcal T$, which may be realized as an open subset in the complex Banach space of holomorphic quadratic differentials in the unit disc.…
The universal Teichm\"uller space is an infinitely dimensional generalization of the classical Teichm\"uller space of Riemann surfaces. It carries a natural Hilbert structure, on which one can define a natural Riemannian metric, the…
The Universal Teichm\"uller Space, $T(1)$, is a universal parameter space for all Riemann surfaces. In earlier work of the first author it was shown that one can canonically associate infinite- dimensional period matrices to the coadjoint…
The quantum dilogarithm function of Faddeev is a special function that plays a key role as the building block of quantum invariants of knots and 3-manifolds, of quantum Teichm\"uller theory and of complex Chern-Simons theory. Motivated by…
We introduce and study a Schwarz space S in the space of functions on the real line. It is a module over the algebra L of regular functions on the (modular double of the) non-commutative q-deformation of the moduli space of configurations…
In this paper we parametrize the Teichm\"uller spaces of constructible Koebe groups, that is Kleinian group that arise as covering of $2-$orbifolds determined by certain normal subgroups of their fundamental groups. We also study the…
We find a remarkably simple relationship between the following two models of the tangent space to the Universal Teichm\"uller Space: (1) The real-analytic model consisting of Zygmund class vector fields on the unit circle; (2) The…
Any two infinite-dimensional (separable) Hilbert spaces are unitarily isomorphic. The sets of all their self-adjoint operators are also therefore unitarily equivalent. Thus if all self-adjoint operators can be observed, and if there is no…
We apply the methods of simultaneous uniformization and composition operators on Besov spaces to the Teichm\"uller space $T^Z$ of circle diffeomorphisms with Zygmund continuous derivatives. As consequences, we obtain the following: (1) a…
In arXiv:0707.2151 the authors introduced the theory of local representations of the quantum Teichm\"uller space $\mathcal{T}^q_S$ ($q$ being a fixed primitive $N$-th root of $(-1)^{N + 1}$) and they studied the behaviour of the…
We give a construction of a Dirac operator on a quantum group based on any simple Lie algebra of classical type. The Dirac operator is an element in the vector space $U_q(\g) \otimes \mathrm{cl}_q(\g)$ where the second tensor factor is a…
We describe in elementary geometrical terms Teichm\" uller spaces of decorated and holed surfaces. We construct explicit global coordinates on them as well as on the spaces of measured laminations with compact and closed support…
We introduce a certain type of representations for the quantum Teichmuller space of a punctured surface, which we call local representations. We show that, up to finitely many choices, these purely algebraic representations are classified…
Based on the quasiconformal theory of the universal Teichm\"uller space, we introduce the Teichm\"uller space of diffeomorphisms of the unit circle with $\alpha$-H\"older continuous derivatives as a subspace of the universal Teichm\"uller…
We show that the quantum Casimir operators of the quantum linear group constructed in early work of Bracken, Gould and Zhang together with one extra central element generate the entire center of $\Uq$. As a by product of the proof, we…
The famous pentagon identity for quantum dilogarithms has a generalization for every Dynkin quiver, due to Reineke. A more advanced generalization is associated with a pair of alternating Dynkin quivers, due to Keller. The description and…
A quantum generalization of Rogers' five term, or ``pentagon'' dilogarithm identity is suggested. It is shown that the classical limit gives usual Rogers' identity. The case where the quantum identity is realized in finite dimensional space…
