We study the Hamiltonian vector field v=(f/w,f/z)v=(-\partial f/\partial w,\partial f/\partial z) on C2\mathbb C^2, where f=f(z,w)f=f(z,w) is a polynomial in two complex variables, which is non-degenerate with respect to its Newton's polygon.

We show that the SL(2,C)-character variety of the (-2,3,n) pretzel knot consists of two (respectively three) algebraic curves when 3 does not divide n (respectively 3 divides n) and give an explicit calculation of the Culler-Shalen seminorms of these curves. Using this calculation, we describe the fundamental polygon a…

However, the polygons must converge in a ``nice'' way, and th…
