The construction of the quantum Teichm\\\"{u}ller space crucially depends on certain coordinate change isomorphisms between the Chekhov-Fock algebras associated to different ideal triangulations of $S$. We show that these coordinate change isomorphisms are essentially unique, once we require them to satisfy a certain number of natural conditions.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2005-09-28T23:30:25.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "57M50", "57R56", "20G42" ], "keywords": [ "teichmüller spaces", "uniqueness property", "coordinate change isomorphisms", "quantization", "natural conditions" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 14, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2005math......9679B" } } }
