Isomonodromic deformations and twisted Yangians arising in Teichm\"uller theory

Understand

In this paper we build a link between the Teichmuller theory of hyperbolic Riemann surfaces and isomonodromic deformations of linear systems whose monodromy group is the Fuchsian group associated to the given hyperbolic Riemann surface by the Poincare' uniformization.

• In the case of a one-sheeted hyperboloid with n orbifold points we show that the Poisson algebra D_n of geodesic length functions is the semiclassical limit of the twisted q-Yangian for the orthogonal Lie algebra defined by Molev, Ragoucy and Sorba.
• We give a representation of the braid group action on this algebra in terms of an adjoint matrix action.
• We characterize two types of finite-dimensional Poissonian reductions and give an explicit expression for the generating function of their central elements.
