Geometry of the space of monodromy data

Abstract

In a paper published by the Annales de la Facult\'e de Sciences de Toulouse, with Yousuke Ohyama, we defined and studied a space of monodromy data underlying the well known derivation of q-Painlev\'e VI equation from q-isomonodromy conditions by Jimbo and Sakai. In a recent ArXiv preprint, Nalini Joshi and Pieter Roffelsen pursued our work. However, both our article and their preprint are ambiguous on some foundational algebro-geometric matters. We proceed here to provide sound bases.
