Event description: 

We derive the quantum Teichmuller space, previously constructed by
Kashaev and by Fock and Chekhov, from tensor products of a single canonical
representation of the modular double of the quantum plane. Since there are too
many things to introduce, I’ll try to stay away from too much details. Full
abstract and the paper is available in arXiv:1006.3895v1
