Abstract

Given a discrete subgroup Γ\Gamma of finite co-volume of PGL(2,R)\mathrm{PGL}(2,\mathbb{R}), we define and study parabolic vector bundles on the quotient Σ\Sigma of the (extended) hyperbolic plane by Γ\Gamma. If Γ\Gamma contains an orientation-reversing isometry, then the above is equivalent to studying real and quaternionic parabolic vector bundles on the orientation cover of Σ\Sigma. We then prove that isomorphism classes of polystable real and quaternionic parabolic vector bundles are in bijective correspondence with equivalence classes of real and quaternionic unitary representations of Γ\Gamma. Similar results are obtained for compact-type real parabolic vector bundles over Klein surfaces.
