On the geometry of the Calogero-Moser system

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We discuss a special eigenstate of the quantized periodic Calogero-Moser system associated to a root system. This state has the property that its eigenfunctions, when regarded as multivalued functions on the space of regular conjugacy classes in the corresponding semisimple complex Lie group, transform under monodromy according to the complex reflection representation of the affine Hecke algebra.We show that this endows the space of conjugacy classes in question with a projective structure. For a certain parameter range this projective structure underlies a complex hyperbolic structure. If in addition a Schwarz type of integrality condition is satisfied, then it even has the structure of a ball quotient minus a Heegner divisor. For example, the case of the root system E_8 with the triflection monodromy representation describes a special eigenstate for the system of 12 unordered points on the projective line under a particular constraint.


The authors carry over their previous work on geometric structures on complements of projectivized hyperplane arrangements to the projective structures on certain spaces of conjugacy classes in semisimple complex Lie groups. These projective structures are obtained from a study of the quantized periodic Calogero-Moser system associated with a root system. Under some constraints these projective structures underlie a complex hyperbolic structure, which is a ball quotient minus a Heegner divisor if a certain Schwarz-type condition is satisfied. The authors discuss an example related to the moduli spaces of degree 12 divisors on the projective line. They also propose thorough a study of Calogero-Moser systems associated with arbitrary root systems and spectral/coupling parameters.
