Inspired by the swapping algebra and the rank n cross-ratio introduced by F. Labourie, we construct a ring equipped with the swapping Poisson structure---the rank n swapping algebra Zn(P) to study the moduli spaces of cross ratios. We prove that Zn(P) inherits a Poisson structure form the swapping bracket. To consider the "cross-ratios" in the fraction ring, by interpreting Zn(P) by a geometric model in the study of geometry invariant theory, we prove that Zn(P) is an integral domain. Then we consider the ring Bn(P) generated by the cross ratios in the fraction ring of Zn(P). For n = 2,3, we embed in a Poisson way the ring generated by Fock-Goncharov coordinates for configuration space of flags in Rn into Bn(P). By studying the discrete integrable system for the configuration space MN,1 of N-twisted polygons in RP1, up to a discrete Fourier transformation, we asymptotically relate the swapping algebra to the Virasoro algebra on a hypersurface of MN,1.
