The Roger–Yang skein algebra and the decorated Teichmüller space

Based on hyperbolic geometric considerations, Roger and Yang introduced an extension of the Kauffman bracket skein algebra that includes arcs. In particular, their skein algebra is a deformation quantization of a certain commutative curve algebra, and there is a Poisson algebra homomorphism between the curve algebra and the algebra of smooth functions on decorated Teichmuller space. In this paper, we consider surfaces with punctures which is not the 3-holed sphere and which have an ideal triangulation without self-folded edges or triangles. For those surfaces, we prove that Roger and Yang's Poisson algebra homomorphism is injective, and the skein algebra they defined have no zero divisors. A section about generalized corner coordinates for normal arcs may be of independent interest.
