We study here the space of representations of a fundamental group of a 3-manifold into PGL(n,C). Thurston, Neumann and Zagier initiated a strategy (in the case of PGL(2,C)) consisting in: triangulate the manifold, assign shapes to each…

We classify representations of a class of Deligne-Mostow lattices into PGL(3;C). In particular, we show local rigidity for the representations (of Deligne-Mostow lattices with 3-fold symmetry and of type one) where the generators we chose…

In this paper we are interested in computing representations of the fundamental group of a 3-manifold into PSL(3;C) (in particular in PSL(2;C); PSL(3;R) and PU(2; 1)). The representations are obtained by gluing decorated tetrahedra of…

We complete the classification of type preserving representations of Deligne-Mostow lattices with 3-fold symmetry into PGL(3,C) started in arXiv:2003.06466. In particular, we show local rigidity for all the representations where the…

In a previous paper, we parametrized boundary-unipotent representations of a 3-manifold group into SL(n,C) using Ptolemy coordinates, which were inspired by A-coordinates on higher Teichm\"uller space due to Fock and Goncharov. In this…

In a previous article we studied PGL(n,C)-representations of a 3-manifold via a generalization of Thurston's gluing equations. Neumann has proved some symplectic properties of Thurston's gluing equations that play an important role in…

We show local rigidity of hyperbolic triangle groups generated by reflections in pairs of $n$-dimensional subspaces of $R^{2n}$ obtained by composition of the geometric representation in $PGL(2, R)$ with the diagonal embeddings into…

We show that for a representation of the fundamental group of a triangulated closed 3-manifold (not necessarily hyperbolic) into $\PSL$ so that any edge loop has non-trivial image under the representation, there exist uncountably many…

We investigate the local deformation space of 3-dimensional cone-manifold structures of constant curvature $\kappa \in \{-1,0,1\}$ and cone-angles $\leq \pi$. Under this assumption on the cone-angles the singular locus will be a trivalent…

Given a finite volume hyperbolic 3-manifold, we compose a lift of the holonomy in SL(2,C) with the n-dimensional irreducible representation of SL(2,C) in SL(n,C). In this paper we give local coordinates of the SL(n,C)-character variety…

For a complete hyperbolic three manifold M, we consider the representations of its fundamental group obtained by composing a lift of the holonomy with complex finite dimensional representations of SL(2,C). We prove a vanishing result for…

In this paper, we introduce a particularly nice family of locally CAT(-1) spaces, which we call hyperbolic P-manifolds. For $X^3$ a simple, thick hyperbolic P-manifold of dimension 3, we show that certain subsets of the boundary at infinity…

In a recent paper Hodgson and Kerckhoff prove a local rigidity theorem for finite volume, three dimensional hyperbolic cone-manifolds. In this paper we extend this result to geometrically finite cone-manifolds. Our methods also give a new…

We give a description of several representation varieties of the fundamental group of the complement of the figure eight knot in PGL(3,C) or SL(3,C). We moreover obtain an explicit parametrization of matrices generating the representation…

Type B 3-fold supersymmetry is a necessary and sufficient condition for a quantum Hamiltonian to admit three linearly independent local solutions in closed form. We show that any such a system is invariant under GL(3,C) homogeneous linear…

We prove global rigidity for compact hyperbolic and spherical cone-3-manifolds with cone-angles $\leq \pi$ (which are not Seifert fibered in the spherical case), furthermore for a class of hyperbolic cone-3-manifolds of finite volume with…

We provide a new topological interpretation of the symplectic properties of gluing equations for triangulations of hyperbolic 3-manifolds, first discovered by Neumann and Zagier. We also extend the symplectic properties to more general…

This paper continues our exploration of homology cobordism of 3-manifolds using our recent results on Cheeger-Gromov rho-invariants associated to amenable representations. We introduce a new type of torsion in 3-manifold groups we call…

We prove that level $5$ Witten-Reshetikhin-Turaev $\mathrm{SO}(3)$ quantum representations, also known as the Fibonacci representations, of mapping class groups are locally rigid. More generally, for any prime level $\ell$, we prove that…

We give explicit equations that describe the character variety of the figure eight knot for the groups SL(3,C), GL(3,C) and PGL(3,C). This has five components of dimension 2, one consisting of totally reducible representations, another one…
