摘要

Based on the pioneering ideas of Kashaev (Kashaev RM, Lett. Math. 2247 Phys. 43(2), 105–115 (1998)), we present a fully explicit construction of a finite-dimensional projective representation of the dotted Ptolemy groupoid when the quantum parameter q is a root of unity, which reproduces the central charge of the SU(2) Wess–Zumino–Witten model. A basic ingredient is the cyclic quantum dilogarithm (Faddeev LD, Kashaev RM, Modern Phys. Lett. A 9(5), 427–434 2210 (1994)). A notable contribution of this work is a reinterpretation of the relations among the parameters in the cyclic quantum dilogarithm to ensure its pentagon identity in terms of the mutations of coefficients. In particular, we find the dual roles of these parameters: as coefficients in quantum cluster algebras and as the central characters of quantum cluster variables. We also provide a geometric method to decompose the space of quantum states into irreducible modules of the Chekhov–Fock algebra. We introduce two versions of quantum intertwiners associated with a mapping class: on the entire representation space and on each irreducible component, each being an explicit composite of cyclic quantum dilogarithm operators. We prove that the former gives an intertwiner of local representations of quantum Teichmüller space in the sense of Bai–Bonahon–Liu Bai et al., Local representations of the quantum Teichmüller space and also coincides with the transpose of the reduced quantum hyperbolic operator of Baseilhac–Benedetti (Baseilhac S, Benedetti R, Geom. Dedicata. 197, 1–32 (2018)). The mutation relation of coefficients is equivalent to the quantum gluing equation. The irreducible intertwiner conjecturally coincides with the Bonahon–Liu intertwiner (Bonahon F, Liu X, Geom. Topol. 11, 889–937 (2007)), and we give a partial evidence.
