Abstract
We generalize a new class of cluster type mutations for which exchange transformations are given by reciprocal polynomials. In the case of second-order polynomials of the form x + 2cos(pi / n_0) + x^-1 these transformations are related to triangulations of Riemann surfaces of arbitrary genus with at least one hole / puncture and with an arbitrary number of orbifold points of arbitrary integer orders n_0. We propose the dual graph description of the corresponding Teichmuller spaces, construct the Poisson algebra of the Teichmuller space coordinates, propose the combinatorial description of the corresponding geodesic functions and find the mapping class group transformations.
