Abstract:
We will discuss a natural (pre)-symplectic structure associated to an arbitrary flat
graph connection on a Riemann surface and its invariance properties.
This allows to efciently parametrize (wild) character varieties using Fock-Goncharov
coordinates and provide explicit log-canonical coordinates for several types of Poisson
structures; Goldman on the standard character variety, Flaschka-Newell-Boalch on
Stokes' manifolds and Ugaglia-Bondal Poisson structures.
In the case of (wild) character varieties, this construction allows to define the
generating functions of symplectic polarizations and identify them with the classical
notion of isomonodromic tau functions of the Japanese school.
Based on works with Dmitry Korotkin, Fabrizio Del Monte, Sofia Tarricone.
