Abstract

We prove in two different ways that the monodromy map from the space of irreducible sl2\mathfrak{sl}_2-differential-systems on genus two Riemann surfaces, towards the character variety of SL2\mathrm{SL}_2-representations of the fundamental group, is a local diffeomorphism. This is motivated by a question raised by \'Etienne Ghys about Margulis' problem: existence of curves of negative Euler characteristic in compact quotients of SL2(C)\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{C}).
