Event description:
In 2004 Enriquez-Etingof-Marshall suggested a new approach to the Ginzburg-Weinstein linearization theorem. This approach is based on solving a system of PDEs for a gauge transformation between the standard classical r-matrix and the Alekseev-Meinrenken dynamical r-matrix. In the talk, we explain that this gauge transformation can be constructed as a monodromy (connection matrix) for a certain irregular Riemann-Hilbert problem. Geometrically, this leads to a symplectic neighborhood version of the Ginzburg-Weinstein linearization theorem. Our construction is based on earlier works by Boalch. As an application, we give a new description of the Lu-Weinstein symplectic double.
